Scientists predict that by 2037 the movement of crustal plates near San Adreas fault in California almost certainly lead to an earthquake comparable in strength with shocks in Haiti.
It is estimated that over the next 30 years there is a probability of 99, 7%, an earthquake of magnitude 6, 7 points destroy the US West Coast.
The chances of such an event is higher in Southern California than in the North - 97% versus 93%, reports AP. "We almost guarantee there will be something like," - says Ned Field, a geophysicist at the Geological Survey in Pasadena and one of the authors of this sensational forecast.
But while on the formidable forces resemble a mud volcanoes.
Report of the places where scientists project may soon not be.
Geothermal mud springs.
A flock of seagulls near the geothermal power plant Kalipatriya.
The freight company Union Pacific.
Geothermal station that receives electricity via the heated substance coming out of the depths of the earth at a temperature of 360C.
Carbon dioxide comes out of the mud column.
Truck on Highway 10.
...
Highway 10 and windmills in the background.
Freight train carrying military equipment.
Scatter dirt remaining after the bursting of the carbon dioxide-containing mud bubble.
Light from a geothermal plant.
