据《新科学家》杂志报道,来自斯坦福大学、劳伦斯·立弗莫尔国家实验室和美国地质测量部的地球物理学家计划在加利福尼亚州著名的圣安德斯断层带钻一个直径20厘米、深度大约10公里的孔,以便更好地了解地震的成因。该研究项目将耗资5000万美元,一俟钻探开始将持续进行6年。科学家希望测量出断层带区域岩石孔内的岩浆压力。较高的岩浆压力可能是导致该
According to the New Scientist magazine, geophysicists from Stanford University, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and the US Department of Geological Survey plan to drill a 20 cm-diameter hole in the famous St Anders Fault in California, Approximately 10 km of holes to better understand the cause of the earthquake. The research project will cost 50 million U.S. dollars and will continue for as long as 6 years from the start of drilling. Scientists hope to measure the magma pressure in the rock hole in the fault zone. Higher magmatic pressure may be the cause of this
