earthquakes along
mid-ocean ridge are
shallower than those
along subduction zone

Magnitudes
⚫ Ground Shaking
⚫ Fire
⚫ Land Movement
⚫ Tsunami
Ground Shaking
• Causes most
damage and loss
of life
• Building on
bedrock move
as unit with
ground and
suffer lower
damage

India-Burma
rotation pole is
nearby, hence the
relative motion is
more strike-slip in
the north, unlikely
to cause a giant
earthquake
