Vessels Collide By Tectonics which Dr.Ir. Budi Brahmantyo, M.Sc.
Bandung (fitb.itb.ac.id) of western Java panic. Wednesday, September 2, 2009, at 14:55 pm, suddenly the earth shook terrific. Very strong vibration felt by the majority of West Java and Jakarta. When the first vibration shook, nearly everyone simultaneously pouring out of the building. Soon, the field and the streets were filled with people who panic. All activity stopped in unison. Damage and casualties were reported in Tasikmalaya, Cianjur and Garut south.
It was a coincidence, the next morning the same day, the People’s Mind column contains wisdom that is present during the Ramadan day was filled by Prof. Dr. Hery Harjono with the title “The ship is sailing like the Mountain.” Prof. Dr. Hery Harjono, a geologist who studied tectonics, in a column explaining how the verses kauniah related to nature can already be properly interpreted by the development of science and technology.
He explained the interpretation of Surah Asy-Syuura, 42:32, “And among His signs is His ships (sailing) in the sea like mountains,” as well as An-Naml, 27:88 “And you see mountains, you would have thought he was still in place, but he moves like a cloud. ” Subhan Allah, the holy verses which fell fifteen centuries ago, now has been understood as the movement of tectonic plates. When the tectonic plates that interact with one another, earthquakes ensued shook the earth and the human heart is in it. That’s what happened on the 12th day of Ramadan 1430 H ships colliding tectonic and will continue to collide.
2 September 2009 earthquake that hit, especially in West Java, according to the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics (BMKG) berepisentrum at 8.24 LS – 107.32 BT with a magnitude of 7.3 on the Richter scale with a depth of 30 km is located 142 km southwest Tasikmalaya. Earthquake aftershock occurred at 15.15 pm and 16:28 pm with a magnitude of 5.1 on the Richter scale and 5.4 on the Richter scale. According to the USGS web site (United States Geological Survey), the quake had a magnitude M7.0 at a depth of 49 km on a slightly different coordinates, namely at 7,77 LS – BT 107.32.
The ships are colliding tectonic plates is Indian-Australian lithosphere with Eurasia. Indian-Australian Plate is an oceanic plates that move relative to the north. Moving average reached 7-10 cm / year. When the plate is moving north, the north was blocked by a giant plate is the Eurasian plate, a great combination between the continents of Europe and Asia.
Interaction of the two giant plates has two major phenomenon, namely the formation of the Himalayas and the deep ocean trenches. India-Australia plate is actually the plates were mostly housed in the Indian Ocean so-called oceanic plates. On it ride Continent Australia and India. As part of India in the form of a continental plate collided with the Eurasian continent, creating the Himalayas.
In geology, the collision of two continental plates collision alias is called a collision. Imagine if two locomotives collided head-on. Both locomotives will be lifted. That is how the Himalayas formed towering up to 8,848 m above sea level.
Elsewhere, trenches which reaches a depth of 6,000 m below sea level is formed because colliding oceanic plate with the continental shelf. Imagine a sedan collided with a truck. Sedan will be sunk tertunjam under the under the truck. That’s what happens along the west coast of Sumatra continuous to the south of Java, Nusa Tenggara, Maluku to the south. One segment of the Indian-Australian oceanic plate is subducting under the sign plate under the Eurasian Continent creating Tasikmalaya earthquake that caused panic on Wednesday afternoon. In geology this subduction event known as subduction. * Source: People’s Mind-September 3, 2009 edition
