5 moderate earthquakes strike in Earth’s southern polar region

South Pacific Rise
January 27, 2013 SOUTH POLE - Today, three earthquakes struck along the southernmost region of the planet, known as the Southern East Pacific Rise. The SEPR lies north of Antarctica. The SEPR quakes occurred in succession, following two moderate 4.7 magnitude earthquakes, which struck east of Bristol Island, near the Sandwich Islands- also north of Antarctica. The East Pacific Rise is a mid-oceanic ridge, a divergent tectonic plate boundary located along the floor of the Pacific Ocean. It separates the Pacific Plate to the west from (north to south) the North American Plate, the Rivera Plate, the Cocos Plate, the Nazca Plate, and the Antarctic Plate. It runs from an undefined point near Antarctica in the south northward to its termination at the northern end of the Gulf of California in the Salton Sea basin in southern California. The oceanic crust is moving away from the East Pacific Rise to either side at a rate of 70mm/year.  The series of earthquakes today ranged in magnitude instensity of from 5.2 to 4.7. We’re seeing more signs of growing tension along tectonic plates in the Ring of Fire.

Guam earthquake goes unreported:  An earthquake that shook the island just before 8am Monday morning has not been reported by the U.S. Geological Survey. The earthquake gently shook buildings throughout the island, but caused no reported damage or injuries. The magnitude of the earthquake is unclear because the USGS website, which normally records and reports earthquakes throughout the world, did not report this temblor. It’s not clear why the earthquake was unreported, but it’s not the first time. Last year, a similarly mild earthquake went unreported by the USGS. Email inquires to the Western Regional Office of the USGS have not been answered. -PNC
California to get early-warning quake system: Californians would have precious seconds to prepare for a major earthquake under a new proposal to create a statewide early warning system. State Sen. Alex Padilla joined with seismologists Monday in announcing legislation to create the system. The U.S. has been testing warning systems for several years but lags behind countries such as Japan and Mexico in implementing the technology to warn the public. Such systems are designed to detect the first pulses of energy from an earthquake, estimate its magnitude and send alerts before damaging seismic waves spread widely. Warning times would range from a few seconds to tens of seconds—enough time for people to take cover or begin shutting down systems that could be damaged by severe shaking. –Mercury

    And these EQ’s are going to continue as Nibiru ascends up from below of our system on its outward orbit … TPTB knew this was going to happen, that is why they built all of the telescopes at the South Pole … so they could track its movements. The Lost Book of Enki describes exactly what we have been seeing since at least the the mid 70’s … the increase in the Volcanic activity around the planet … the sharp rise in the EQ activity around the planet … the weird weather all around the planet … the increase in Solar activity in responce to the closeness of the Dwarf Star that Nibiru orbits … the second Sun-like object seen in the skies around the planet … NASA has known about all of this since their space probe was launched in the mid 90’s to meet up with Nibiru, orbit it, and videotape it … if you want proof, just ask, and I will share all of my research with you :)

    Almost opposite the SEPR today there were four 5M quakes and a number of high fours, certainly the unrest is growing. There was a 5.3 in Madagascar on the 25th. is this unusual, it does not appear to be on a fault line?

    This is an area of interest to me. Have noted some interesting patterns that develop after activity in this area.

    thank you extinction protocol for this great website and your excellent research…this site is the most informative on earth changes on the net.

    There are so many +5 quakes lately. This is troubling.

    I believe that it is the increase of cosmic radiation that is causing all the changes, including our sun’s activity and warming of our planet. As our planets core is bombarded with raditation, it causes it to heat up and expand. Therefore more earthquakes and volcanism. Could also be a prelude to pole shift.

    why didnt they report the guam quakes? what are they hiding…is a guam quake an indicator

  8. then why do we have so much drought in places and lakes and riverbeds drying up if there is so much more precipitation as you say?

    I tend to agree with Alfonzo regarding underwater volcanism playing a huge part in our current weather patterns. Unfortunately I have not read Dixie Lee Ray’s book. Recently miles of pumice have been spotted floating in the ocean. That could only come from underwater volcanos.
    I believe this years comet activity will also impact our weather and likely seismic activity as well. Solar activity greatly affects weather, seismic activity, animals and humans alike. This year should be something to write home about.
    Though I only recently discovered this web site, I want to express my graditude for all the information provided here.
    It seems that threw the culmination of so many natural earth changes we will see many new events unfold…many I never could have imagined.
