It can also happen if the tectonic plates rub against each other, so when an earthquake happens they are basically pushing each other instead of moving. ]]> 2016-10-12 13:21:02 UTC https://padlet.com/dmora3609/81rh0pxj7cdo/wish/130113250 Where do not occur Earthquake? cliu3691 https://padlet.com/dmora3609/81rh0pxj7cdo/wish/130113491 1.Shanghai,China

But we can measure the size of the earthquake by using a seismograph. ]]> 2016-10-12 13:28:33 UTC https://padlet.com/dmora3609/81rh0pxj7cdo/wish/130116110
