<p>Bleke2: </p> <hr /> <div>An '''earthquake''' is the shaking caused when [[plate tectonics|tectonic]] activity in an area causes the release of stored [[energy]] from the rock. Most commonly occurring on tectonic plate boundaries, earthquakes also occur along [[fault]]s where previous movement has occurred. Biblically, earthquakes in the [[Old Testament]] have been attributed to God's wrath, though it later turned out to be another natural phenomenon.<br /> <br /> Earthquakes are a significant natural [[hazard]] to populations living in areas prone to earthquakes and responses to the hazard vary with economic development.<br /> <br /> The most powerful earthquakes occur at destructive tectonic plate boundaries.<br /> <br /> ==See Also==<br /> <br /> * [[seismic]]<br /> * [[Loma Prieta Earthquake]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Seismology]]<br /> [[Category:Natural Disasters]]</div>
