A proposed perennial plate tectonic map. Present-day plate boundaries (white lines), with hidden ancient plate boundaries that may reactivate to control plate tectonics (yellow lines). Regions where mantle lithosphere heterogeneities have been located are given by yellow crosses.
Well, you see, if the erf wasn’t getting sooooooooo hot and expanding, all these erf quakes could be avoided. Right?
No surprises there.
The New Madrid quakes and a long series of very low intensity quakes across the US show up on those two lines crossing the middle of the US.
