A rare magnitude 4.8 earthquake rattled New Jersey on Friday, shaking buildings in Manhattan and sending tremors across the Northeast United States, a region unfamiliar with much seismic activity.
Originally intended for estimating the magnitude of historic earthquakes where seismic data is lacking but tidal data exist, the correlation can be reversed to predict tidal height from earthquake magnitude. (Not to be confused with the height of a tidal wave, or run-up, which is an intensity effect controlled by local topography.) Under low ...
