Masatoshi Miyazawa, an associate professor at Kyoto University’s Disaster Prevention Research Institute, says that after almost a year of study, he has concluded the March 11 Mega Quake caused a record number of  ‘induced’ earthquakes.

He says that within 15 minutes of the magnitude 9 earthquake, at least 80 quakes were triggered on different fault lines all over Japan.  From islands north of Hokkaido to islands south of Kyushu.  One quake was 1,300 km (807.8 miles) away from the magnitude 9 Mega Quake.

The magnitudes of the 80 earthquakes ranged from 2 to 4.7.

Miyazawa says many of the induced earthquakes occurred near volcanoes, and he suspects the record number of ‘induced’ quakes was the result of a radical shift in the power balance between tectonic plates.
