Amazing Graphical Representation I’m always fascinated by different representations of data.
I just spotted this article today in New Scientist: First Ever Earthquake Movie Created. Go look at the animated gif that shows the propagation of the ground slippage over 60 seconds during the 8.3 September 2003 Hokkaido quake that injured 589 people and created a 4 meter tsunami. The scientist who synthesized this, Kristine M. Larson, deserves some hearty congrats for finding a new way to visualize existing data regarding ground slippage and how it spreads during a large quake. I’m not sure I was aware how far it could go and that it does it so fast until I saw this.

During November it's all about me writing a novel. Sometimes it's about whalewatching. You know, and then there's other stuff.
