地球自转与汶川地震的成因

通过对2008年5月12日四川汶川8级地震与地球自转关系的分析，提出了一个新的地震成因观点，认为地震的根本原因在于地球自转速率的变化。地球岩石圈由大小不同、质量不同的块体组成。比如，大洋块体薄、质量轻，大陆块体厚、质量重。地球自转速率变化时，就会造成这些块体运动的差异性。这种差异运动可能使块体之间发生“追尾”撞击或摩擦，从而引起地震。地震能量来自于块体间撞击或摩擦时损失的动能。

The earth's rotation and the 2008 M8.0 Wenchuan Earthquake

The relationship between the 2008 M8.0 Wenchuan Earthquake and the earth rotation is analyzed.A new view of earthquake is presented.An earthquake results from rate change of the earth rotation.The earth crust consists of different size blocks and of different mass.For example,ocean blocks are thin and light,and continental blocks are thick and heavy.When the earth rotation rate changes,different blocks have different velocities.The velocity differences result in bumping or rubbing among blocks.That is earth...
