Can certainly be be caused by human activity - and maybe tectonic weapons?

An earthquake is the sudden movement or trembling of the Earth's tectonic plates, that creates the shakes of the ground. This shaking can destroy buildings and break the Earth's surface. A sudden shake under water can cause tsunamis.

UN Treaty

May 1977 the UN adopted ENMOD, the “Convention on the Prohibition of Military or Any Other Hostile Use of Environmental Modification Techniques”. Since that time, interventions to change the weather or geological reactions such as artificially induce earthquakes are forbidden. The United States is a signatory.[1]

In 1997 at a press briefing, US Defense Secretary William Cohen touched on the concept:


Others are engaging even in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves.[2]

Project Plowshare

Project Plowshare was the overall United States program for the development of techniques to use nuclear explosives for peaceful construction purposes. The Soviet Union had a similar program. Successful demonstrations of non-combat uses for nuclear explosives include rock blasting and engineering projects.[3]

The Valdivia earthquake

On May 22, 1960, the most powerful earthquake in recorded history — magnitude 9.5 — struck southern Chile. The rupture zone stretched from estimates ranging from 500 kilometers (311 miles) to almost 1,000 kilometers (621 miles) along the country’s coast, killing 2000. [4] There has been reports that this was caused by a secret nuclear explosion.[5]

Tectonic weapons

A tectonic weapon is a hypothetical device or system which could create earthquakes, volcanoes, or other seismic events in specified locations by interfering with the Earth's natural geological processes. It was defined in 1992 by Aleksey Vsevolodovich Nikolayev, corresponding member Russian Academy of Sciences: "A tectonic or seismic weapon would be the use of the accumulated tectonic energy of the Earth's deeper layers to induce a destructive earthquake".[6]

Tesla howitzers

Project Seal

During the Second World War, a group of New Zealand researchers attempted to develop a device capable of provokingtsunamis that could be unleashed against Japan. The research work was conducted by Thomas Leech, an Australian national, at Auckland University behind the code name of "Project Seal". Several small-scale test explosions were carried out successfully, between 1944 and 1945, at Whangaparaoa off the coast of Auckland.[7]

The United States deemed this programme to be as equally promising as the Manhattan Project, involving the development of the atomic bomb, and appointed Dr. Karl T. Compton to maintain the liaison between the two research units. Compton was an American physicist and president of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 1930 to 1948.[7]

Soviet research

In 1975, the USSR embarked on a new research in the field of Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) for the purpose of studying the earth’s crust and be able to anticipate earthquakes. The Soviets examined the possibility of provoking small quakes in order to forestall a big one. This research was quickly militarized and resulted in the construction of Pamir, the earthquake machine. The research was snapped up the the United States after the collapse of the USSR.[7]

Drilling

Drilling for oil sets off earthquakes.[8]

Injecting wastewater from oil and gas operations into deep underground wells can cause earthquakes even in areas with no previous recorded activity. The injections can alter stresses that hold geologic faults together, letting them slip, unleashing an earthquake.[9]

Storing of carbon dioxide

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) or carbon capture and sequestration[10] is the process of capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) before it enters the atmosphere, transporting it, and storing it underground, theoretically for centuries or millennia. Usually the CO2 is captured from large point sources, such as coal-fired power plant, a chemical plant or biomass power plant, and then stored in an underground geological formation

Because of the critically stressed nature of the crust, fluid injection in deep wells can trigger earthquakes when the injection increases pore pressure in the vicinity of preexisting potentially active faults. Even small to moderate earthquakes threaten the seal integrity of a CO2 repository.[11]

HAARP

Full article: HAARP

VIVE TV, a Venezuelan public channel, citing Russian navy sources the 2010 Haiti earthquake and the [[12 May 2008 Sichuan (China) earthquakes were caused by electromagnetic waves emitted by HAARP. The channel told "since the late 1970s, the U.S. have made tremendous progress in their seismic weapons research and, according to these Russian sources, currently employ devices based on Pulse, Plasma, Electromagnetic and Sonic technology combined with shock wave bombs."[12][7]

Nikola Tesla's Earthquake Machine

If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration. (Nikola Tesla)

Mythbusters tried to debunk the Tesla machine - They initially laugh at the idea, but became uneasy at the end of the episode[13]

In 1896 Nikola Tesla was working on oscillations to be used for energy transfer. The idea was to create a steam-powered oscillator, able to create various frequencies. Tesla later explained this principle to reporter Allan L. Besnson, who published in February 1912 an article about Tesla's resonator in The World Today magazine:


He put his little vibrator in his coat-pocket and went out to hunt a half-erected steel building. Down in the Wall Street district, he found one, ten stories of steel framework without a brick or a stone laid around it. He clamped the vibrator to one of the beams, and fussed with the adjustment until he got it. Tesla said finally the structure began to creak and weave and the steel-workers came to the ground panic-stricken, believing that there had been an earthquake. Police was called out. Tesla put the vibrator in his pocket and went away. Ten minutes more and he could have laid the building in the street. And, with the same vibrator, he could have dropped the Brooklyn Bridge into the East River in less than an hour."[14][15]
