5.12汶川大地震
名称:5.12汶川大地震时间:20008年5月12日14时28分04秒地理位置:震中心为四川省汶川县映秀镇震中经纬度:约北纬30度,东经103度震级:里氏震级8.0级,矩震级7.9级地震类型:构造地震
伤亡人数
69227人遇难374643人受伤17923人失踪
伤亡人数
地震成因
地震现象
地震时,最基本的现象是地面的连续振动,主要特征是明显的晃动。
地震造成的灾害首先是破坏房屋和建筑物,如1976年中国河北唐山地震中,70%~80%的建筑物倒塌,人员伤亡惨重。
地震对自然界景观也有很大影响。最主要的后果是地面出现断层和地震裂缝
前兆指地震发生前出现的异常现象,伴随地震而产生的物理、化学变化(振动、电、磁、气象、水氡含量异常等),往往能使一些动物的某种感觉 器官受到刺激而发生异常反应。
电磁异常
地震震级地震震级是根据地震时释放的能量的大小而定的。一次地震释放的能量越多,地震级别越大。地震烈度同样大小的地震,造成的破坏不一定相同;同一次地震,在不同的地方造成的破坏也不同。在中国地震烈度表上,对人的感觉、一般房屋震害程度和其他现象作了描述,可以作为确定烈度的基本依据。

Why Do Earthquakes Happen?
Earthquakes are usually caused when rock underground suddenly breaks along a fault. When the rocks break, two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing against each other,this sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves that make the ground shake. The earthquake occurs
