Hundreds Killed as Massive Tsunami Waves Drown Indonesia’s Palu Beach Following Powerful EQ

Posted by feww on September 29, 2018

KMPH – 092902

About 1,000 people dead or missing following major tsunami that hit Palu beach, Indonesia following M7.5 earthquake

About 400 people were killed, and many more swept away by giant waves after a powerful earthquake and tsunami hit the beach of the city of Palu on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi on Friday.

“The tsunami didn’t come by itself, it dragged cars, logs, houses, it hit everything on land,” spokesman of Indonesia’s disaster mitigation agency BNPB told reporters.

The tsunami struck with a speed of 800 km/h, destroying or causing “extensive” damage to thousands of buildings and public infrastructure along the shoreline and beyond, BNPB reported.

Strong Quake Strikes Belanting, Indonesia, Fatalities Expected

Posted by feww on August 19, 2018

ER: SHS – In – DHRSWBTY

M6.9 Strikes near Belanting, Indonesia

Magnitude: 6.9 mww
Location: 8.324°S, 116.626°E [2km S of Belanting, Indonesia]
Depth: 25.6 km
Time: 2018-08-19 14:56:28 (UTC)
Fatalities expected.

Tectonic Summary

The August 19, 2018, 14:56 UTC, M 6.9 earthquake near Belanting, Indonesia, occurred as the result of shallow thrust faulting on or near The Flores Back Arc Thrust. This event occurred 14 days after the August 5, 2018, M6.9 earthquake near Pulau Lombok, Indonesia which killed at least 476 people. Both events have a similar depth and mechanism.

Prior to the August 5, 2018 earthquake two weeks prior to today’s event, there had been six other events of M 6.5 or larger over the previous century. Four of these are likely to have occurred on the back arc thrust system; a M 6.5 in the Bali region to the west of Lombok in July 1976, and three events of M 6.5, M6.5, and M 6.6 in the Sumbawa region to the east of Lombok in November 2007 and November 2009. The Sumbawa earthquakes were associated with several deaths, hundreds of injuries, and hundreds of houses being destroyed. Since the August 5, 2018 earthquake there have been 10 M 5 and greater earthquakes. Four of these have had magnitudes larger than M 6, including an M 6.3 earthquake ~10 hours prior to this August 19, 14:56 UTC earthquake. Both the August 19, 2018 event, and the August 5, 2018 earthquake, were M 6.9. [USGS]

Jakarta: World’s Fastest-Sinking City

Posted by feww on August 19, 2018

Submitted by a reader

North Jakarta has sunk 2.5m in 10 years, and over 4m in three decades

Jakarta, the Indonesian capital, which is home to more than 10 million people, is also of the world’s fastest-sinking cities.

“It sits on swampy land, the Java Sea lapping against it, and 13 rivers running through it. So it shouldn’t be a surprise that flooding is frequent in Jakarta and, according to experts, it is getting worse. But it’s not just about freak floods, this massive city is literally disappearing into the ground.”

North Jakarta has sunk 2.5m in 10 years, and more than 4m over the past three decades, and is continuing to sink by as much as 25cm a year in some parts, which is more than double the global average for coastal megacities. It is so low that seven of the city’s sewage-choked rivers actually have to flow uphill to reach Jakarta Bay.

It generates more than 20 per cent of Indonesia’s GDP and further subsidence would create an economic nightmare for the country’s 261 million people.

Global Volcanic Activity/ Unrest New/ Ongoing – 092601

Posted by feww on September 26, 2017

Mt Agung volcano has reached a critical stage with about 500 tremors recorded in 24 hrs –BNPB

“…all measuring instruments show there is growing pressure towards the surface,” spokesperson for the National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB) told the local media.

“The chance that an eruption will happen is quite high. But it cannot be predicted when it will happen.”

About 60,000 people have fled the restive volcano in Bali as rising magma and enhanced seismicity threaten an imminent eruption, officials said.

Some 2,000 cattle have also been evacuated from the villages surrounding the volcano.

Strong Quake Strikes Java Trench

M6.2 Quake Strikes S of Mataram, Indonesia

Centered at 11.466°S, 116.234°E the event occurred at a depth of 29.9 km (18.6 mi), reported USGS/EHP.

The event occurred directly south of Segara Anak, a crater lake contained within Mt Rinjani, located on the Lombok Island. Segara Anak is the remnant of Mount Samalas, a 4,200-meter volcano that exploded in 1257 AD, shooting about 350 cubic kilometers of ejecta into the atmosphere [that’s about twice the amount of ejecta from Mt. Tambora explosion in 1815 .] The explosion, believed to be a VEI-7, was one of the largest eruptions over the last seven or so thousand years, and was possibly responsible for triggering the Little Ice Age, according to a study.

Distances

  • 284.0 km (176.5 mi) S of Kute, Indonesia
  • 305.0 km (189.5 mi) S of Praya, Indonesia
  • 319.0 km (198.2 mi) S of Mataram, Indonesia
