Could snow trigger earthquakes? A new study in the journal Science Advances says thousands of quakes on Japan’s Noto Peninsula since 2020 could be linked to the region’s heavy snowfall, pointing to the weather correlating with “earthquake swarms.” While the study doesn’t say that climate directly causes the earthquakes, it suggests the rate of the seismic events could fluctuate depending on the weight of water on the surface and the movement of water below.

J'ai l'embarras du choix car toutes mes randonnées ont été des moments de paix extérieure et intérieure.
Randonnée début avril dans le secteur occidental du système volcanique de Krysuvik. Départ au pied du site de Seltun. Les montagnes brunes au milieu abritent des sources d'eau chaude. Au fond, le grand lac Kleifarvatn.

A bighorn sheep — a younger ram from a mini-herd that dropped by to eat the yard when I was staying in New Mexico a month ago — walking behind a cholla cactus in the middle of a spring snowstorm. #NaturePhotography#NewMexico#Photography#Snow#Sheep#Wild
The light and dark of spring.
Suddenly there are flowers everywhere in the woods, new blossoms to attract the pollinators but some like up hide in the shadows - maybe a little shy at how pretty they are.
La randonnée, un bon moyen d’apercevoir des paysages formidables. Photo prise le 10 février dernier, près du lac Djùpavatn au cœur du système volcanique de Krysuvik.
The western United States is known for occasional massive snow events that can dump several feet of snow in a short amount of time, much like what happened in California’s epic 2023 winter. However, these storms are on the decline, thanks to climate change. Read more at The Hill: https://flip.it/goxGpx #Science#ClimateChange#GlobalWarming#Weather#Snow
