We
9、are saying there is probably a repeat time of 800 years for thiskind of earthquake, said Ms Beth Shaw, an earthquake scientist at the University of Cambridge, who led the study. Scientists study past earthquakes in order to determine the future possibility of similar large shocks.Identifying the fau
10、lt for the AD 365 earthquake and tsunami is important for the tens of millions of people in the region, Ms. Shaw said. The fault close to the southwest coast of Crete last produced a big enough quake to generate a tsunami about 1300, which means the next powerful one couldcome in the next 100 years,
11、 she added in a telephone interview.Ms. Shaw and her colleagues calculate the likelyintervals by measuring the motion of either side of the fault to find how often such large earthquakes would have to occur to account for that level of motion, she said. Their computer model suggested an 8 magnitude
12、quake on the fault would produce a tsunami that floods the coastal regions of Alexandria and North Africa, the southern coast of Greece and Sicily all the way up the Adriati to Dubrovnik. This would be similar to the ancient quake in AD 365 that caused widespread destruction in much of Greece and un

In the past 40 years alone, the global cattle population has doubled.Cows munch mostly grasses and hay-yet they grow big and hefty. Why? Because of the rumen. The rumen holds 160 liters of food and billions of microbes. These mi

The process occurs in all animals with a rumen (cows, sheep, and goats, forexample), and it m ake them very gassy. It s pa

Cells in your brain called neurons are responsible for this processing.The fMRI (functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging) brain scans could generally match electrical activity in the brainto the basic shape of a picture that so
29、meone was looking at.Like calls anywhere else in your body, active neurons use oxygen. Blood bring oxygen to the neurons, and the more active a neuron is, the more oxygen it will consume. The more active a region of the brain, the more active its neurons,and in turn, the more blood will travel to th
30、at region. And by using fMRI, scientists can visualize which parts of the brain receive more oxygen-rich blood-and therefore, which parts are working to process information.An fMRI machine is a device that scans the brain and measures changes in blood flow to the brain. The technology shows research
