"IRIS Seismic Monitor - 30 Recent Earthquakes"


http://www.iris.edu/seismon/last30.html

Good afternoon John and Doves:  I just noticed on Foxnews.com that there was a 6.9 EQ in the Gulf of California.  I hadn't looked at the latest EQ information in a week or so, so I decided to take a look at the above site.   What I saw immediately was the number of EQ's with a depth km of 10.0 in the last 30 days-- 41 of them to be exact.  I've never paid any attention to this particular column before, it was just something that caught my eye this time.  As I said there have been 41  10.0 depth km  EQ's in the last 30 days all over the world, but quite a few in the Gulf of California area alone.  And 8 EQ's on 9-27-10 at this depth, which is alot for one day. Does this mean anything?  I'm no EQ scholar, but I'm puzzled and think this is a little peculiar.    Is something significant taking place 10.0 km's below the surface of the earth or are all of these just coincidences.  Thoughts from any Doves who are knowledgeable in the EQ field would be appreciated.
 
Lord bless!
