Mr. Brocher said a lot of interesting things, including the following: \u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>The type of giant quake that hit Japan yesterday is not expected to menace the Bay Area, where the 7.9 quake of 1906 is thought to be at the upper limit of quakes in the area. The quake yesterday was 30 times larger than the 1906 quake, and 900 times the size of Loma Prieta in 1989. \u003c/li>\n\u003cli>North of California, however is another story. A magnitude 9.0 or above quake in the Pacific Northwest is expected. Those quakes, which are the product of vast and deep faults, are characterized by their severity and the length of shaking when they strike. Brocher said strong shaking lasted for 3-5 minutes during yesterday’s tembler.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A quake in the 9.0 range occurs in the Pacific Northwest region every 300 – 500 years.

Mr. Brocher said a lot of interesting things, including the following: \u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>The type of giant quake that hit Japan yesterday is not expected to menace the Bay Area, where the 7.9 quake of 1906 is thought to be at the upper limit of quakes in the area. The quake yesterday was 30 times larger than the 1906 quake, and 900 times the size of Loma Prieta in 1989. \u003c/li>\n\u003cli>North of California, however is another story. A magnitude 9.0 or above quake in the Pacific Northwest is expected. Those quakes, which are the product of vast and deep faults, are characterized by their severity and the length of shaking when they strike. Brocher said strong shaking lasted for 3-5 minutes during yesterday’s tembler.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A quake in the 9.0 range occurs in the Pacific Northwest region every 300 – 500 years. The last one was in \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1700_Cascadia_earthquake\">1700\u003c/a>, which scientists know because of a tsunami that was recorded in Japan at the time.\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/03/TsunamiQuake.mp3\">Listen to Tom Brocher of the USGS discusse yesterday’s giant earthquake\u003c/a>\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
