Answer:

Due to fluid flowing down to the fracture

Explanation:

Many scientist and policy maker discovered that depth-volume joint impacts are critical, and the amount of INJECTED MATERIAL  becomes more important  at point where surface of  sedimentary rocks contact crystalline strata rocks and it is capable to cause earthquakes — The main reason behind this massive earthquake is the percolation through deep well which allow easy access to liquid to flow down to fracture that are more susceptible to earthquake.

Science notebook activity in this exploration, you will identify the prevailing winds and ocean currents that exist on earth, as
Serggg [28]

The Earth is known to have five prevailing wind zones. They are:

  • Polar easterlies is known to flow from polar high-pressure belt in the direction of the temperate low-pressure belts and it is said to blow from the east.
  • Westerlies moves from from the west toward the east.
  • Horse latitudes,  found in the north and south and moves or flow toward the prevailing westerlies or equator.
  • Trade winds flows mainly from east to west that is north and south of the equator.
  • The doldrums starts at low pressure or weak pressure gradients, and moves in the direction of the trade wind of North and south.

Some of the examples of ocean Currents in the world are:

  • North Equatorial Current is known to be a westward wind-driven current
  • Kuroshio Current is known as north-flowing and also a warm ocean current .
  • North Pacific Current is known to flow from west-to-east .
  • Alaskan Current  has its current flowing counterclockwise.
  • Counter Equatorial Current is known as an eastward flowing and also a wind-driven current
  • South Equatorial Current is known to flow from east-to-west. etc.

<h3>What is the link between wind and ocean currents?</h3>

The winds is known to be a weather condition that carries surface water with them which therefore forms  currents.

Note that as these currents are said to flow westward, the Coriolis effect which is a force that emanates from the rotation of the Earth is said to lower their intensity which can make the currents to bend to the right, facing the north.
