Roger Bilham, a geophysicist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, informed that, in this year, the planet would face more powerful earthquakes and the magnitude level will be 7.0 or more. It can even reach 9.0. He stated that the number of earthquakes could reach up to 20 in 2018.
The published report says, when the planet will enter in to slow rotation period, that will decrease the centrifugal force and tighten the planet’s equator. After that, the tectonic plates will crush with each other. The force that will erupt from this event will start super earthquakes on Earth.
The earthquakes of a magnitude of 7.0 or higher will increase by 25-30%, and the earthquakes will strike the planet with a magnitude level of 9.0 and more. The planet earth already has been faced earthquakes with 7.0 magnitude, and it had done severe destruction. Now, it can assume that if several earthquakes with 9.0 magnitude strike the planet then what will be the consciousness. It can spread up to 250 km from its center point.
Talking about the areas which may affect by this, it has predicted that the western USA, southern Europe, the Middle East, South America will be affected more by this.

It hasn‘t been examined or tested in the lab or confirmed by any further studies. Many scientists have also informed that they‘re not convinced by Bendick‘s and Bilham‘s research yet. Bilham presented the research report at the October meeting of the Geological Society of America, and after that, it has fetched a lot of attention.
Several scientists have noted that earthquake clusters and fluctuations of Earth‘s rotation might happen at the same time, but it is not proving that they are linked to each other.

It’s the “8” in the number that convinced them their results are accurate.
Err...why will we enter a “slow rotation period”????
Do Newton’s laws of motion not apply anymore? What changed?
This is where science is today...state a problem you can’t prove will happen and state that “more research is needed”. We shouldn’t provide public funding for any “research” that can’t be proven. It’s the same with climate “science”. Until we have a 2nd earth rotating around our Sun where we get to dabble with the characteristics of the atmosphere to see what happens, you can’t prove anything. You’re just left with “computer models” that crunch numbers through theoretical formulas. Of which there are many “models” that don’t agree and none of them forecast (or back-cast) well.
The concept of “climate science” is about as solid as “social science”.

Does this mean daylight savings time will autocorrect and we won't have to change the clocks?
Man, I hope so.
Ah yes, “8” trillion in new taxes from hard working middle class Americans. Probably has the Leftists drooling.
If the earth’s rotation is slowing down, do I need to get a slower watch, or should I just get used to being an hour early everywhere I go?
This won’t happen, and this prediction will be forgotten, until it is resurrected for another try in a year or two.
More fake news based on fake science from intellectuals, yet idiots?
Is this unusual?
I’m still trying to figure out how and why the Earth’s rotation is supposed to slow.
Past periods of slow rotation over the last 100 years have coincided with more earthquakes than average...
"The numbers of earthquakes that have occurred each year in the past century are well known. The changes in Earth's rotation rate are also well known," ....
On average, there were about 15 major earthquakes per year since 1900. However, during certain periods, the planet sees between 25 and 35 earthquakes greater than magnitude 7 in a year... those periods coincided with times when the Earth spins more slowly.....
Because NASA tracks the length of the day to the microsecond, these slowdowns in Earth's spin can be predicted five years in advance...
They can hold a Wok Festival to Wok the dog. Call it Wokstock.
The strongest quakes were a 5.0 in the middle of the Indian Ocean, and a 5.2 in middle of the far south Pacific.
bttt
If everybody faced west and started running at the same time....
What will the UN charge to stop these man made earthquakes?
Jesus said something similar. ‘Cept I believe Him.
So let's play his totally nonscientific game....
I predict a earthquake that takes down all of Detroit, MI...
And I predict a tidal wave to take out San Francisco, CA....
You know....lot's of people can play this game....!!
