The Earth Was Shocked—A Lecture on Earthquake Knowledge by the Natural Science Association

Published: November 23, 2006 Edit:

w88 casino News Network (Special Correspondent Li Bo)This year is the Tangshan Earthquake30Anniversary, people are afraid when they hear earthquakes, and China is an earthquake-prone area, so how should we respond?22Sunday, Wednesday at 7:30 pm, in Ningyuan313Zhang ShaoquanThe professor answered questions for students interested in natural sciences.

SpeakerZhang ShaoquanProfessor, is a researcher and graduate tutor at the Institute of Geophysics, China Earthquake Administration, and a professor at the Graduate w88 casino of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He has been engaged in research work at the Institute of Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Geophysics, China Seismological Administration. He is currently the executive director of the Beijing Disaster Reduction Association and undertakes the training task of "Digital Earthquake Observation and Analysis Technology".

Although it was very cold at night, many students came to the scene. The lecture is roughly divided into five issues: the shaking earth, the capital circle demonstration area, new international concepts and thinking, earthquake-resistant design of houses, and self-rescue and mutual rescue in earthquakes. First,ZhangThe professor introduced the occurrence status of earthquakes in the world and our country: every year, there are 100 to 200 earthquakes above magnitude 6 in the world, 10 to 20 earthquakes above magnitude 7, and one to two earthquakes above magnitude 8. Earthquake-prone areas in my country are in the northwest and eastern regions as well as Taiwan Province. Beijing is an "area prone to small earthquakes, areas affected by large earthquakes, non-seismic sensitive areas, and potentially dangerous areas for moderate earthquakes." But we don’t have to worry so much. Our country’s earthquake prediction level is in the leading position in the world, and in19758241_8275

Secondly,The professor also introduced some new international concepts on earthquakes. 1. Community construction is actively being carried out in developed countries in Europe and the United States: such as New Zealand's prepared communities, the United States' earthquake-resistant communities, and Japan's safe communities. Disaster prevention and disaster resistance knowledge are popularized in the communities, and exercises are organized to improve the country's disaster resilience and learn to coexist with earthquakes. 2. Shift from earthquake prediction to the combination of earthquake prediction and earthquake disaster prediction, and organically combine natural science with social science.

This year5What happened in Wen’an City, Hebei Province in January5 magnitude earthquake, clearly felt in Beijing, mostBack ZhangThe professor introduced what we should do after an earthquake occurs. 1. Establish emergency shelters. 2. Stay calm, take shelter on the spot, and evacuate the building immediately after the shaking stops. 3. If you are in a moving vehicle, you should stop immediately and stay away from the overpass. 4. Stay away from high-rise buildings, glass windows, etc. 5. Avoid secondary disasters (such as fires, plagues, tsunamis, landslides, mudslides, etc.)1923The Great Tokyo Earthquake in 2004 caused hundreds of thousands of deaths due to fires that occurred while evacuating.
