Weiss is an associate professor of natural hazards in the College of Science’s Department of Geosciences. He develops computer models and uses data analytics to translate the geologic record of coastal hazards into insights that improve the understanding of coastal hazards in the past and today. His work analyzes how climate change and sea-level rise could change the nature and impacts of coastal hazards in coming years. Robert Weiss examines the impact of coastal hazards in the geologic past, today and in the future. “The location and the earthquake mechanisms are not effective in creating significant tsunami,” he said. Weiss said the possibility of a tsunami resulting from the earthquake is unlikely. 6, Weiss said, “Turkey is located in a collision zone of two plates similar to the ring of fire around the Pacific Ocean.” “While the possibility exists for repeated large-ish earthquakes, it seems our planet continues to provide mysteries to solve.”Īfter the back-to-back earthquakes on Feb. “The Anatolian Plate is sandwiched in an interesting position that enables these earthquakes,” Weiss said. This latest earthquake is reported to have occurred at a depth of roughly 6 miles. The planet’s plates under Turkey and Syria are volatile. So far, no deaths have been reported from today’s quake. Two weeks ago, powerful earthquakes – one 7.8 in magnitude, the second 7.5 in magnitude – struck the region in the early morning, causing thousands of buildings to collapse and killing more than 46,000 people.
Virginia Tech’s Robert Weiss, who studies natural hazards, calls the devastating trio of earthquake “unusual,” but not “impossible.” He added, “The mysteries of the planet are deep … literally.” News reports state that scores of buildings that were damaged in powerful quakes on February 6 have been further damaged or outright collapsed.
