Experts at the Geological Society of America say that the new year could bring an increase in massive and devastating earthquakes according to their research.
According to researchers from University of Colorado Boulder, the Earth’s rotation has slowed and the decrease can spark an increase in severe earthquakes for 2018.
According to the team’s research, which they presented at the Geological Society of America annual meeting in Seattle this October, there may be a trend between slower Earth rotations and more global earthquakes.
Over the past 100 years, there was a 25 to 30 percent increase in the number of significant earthquakes associated with a slowdown in the Earth’s rotation. And during the past 100 years, Earth’s slowdowns have correlated surprisingly well with periods with a global increase in magnitude-7 and larger earthquakes.
According to Science Mag, Earth’s rotation began to slow nearly five years ago, which means that if this theory is true, 2018 could bring two to five more magnitude 7 earthquakes than usual.
This year may not only bring more earthquakes than usual, it may also bring bigger quakes. We are also soon due for “The Really Big One,” where the Juan de Fuca oceanic plate might collide under the North American plate, causing a severe quake that would affect coastal Washington, Oregon, British Columbia and Northern California.
A new study published this October created 50 possible simulations for how the natural disaster may unfold.
In speaking of the Signs of the Last Days in Matthew 24, the Lord Jesus Christ foretold that earthquakes would be a sign of the end of the age and His coming.
