The Earth systems which were affected were the geosphere, biosphere, and hydrosphere. The geosphere was affected because the tectonic plates were shifting and they subducted. This changed the landscape and lots of buildings in the city were destroyed. The biosphere was affected because lots of humans died and some animals as well. This affected the hydrosphere because the plates which subducted were underwater, and this created an underwater trench.
