aftershock of the magnitude 5.5 quake that hit the province last July 13.
MANILA, July 27 (Reuters) -- An earthquakeand

Summary: TEHRAN (FNA)- California could be hit with a series of large earthquakes after the 7.1 magnitude quake that struck on Friday, and
aftershocks could go on for years, a seismologist with the US Geological Survey warned.
USGS is warning about a major 5.4 magnitude
aftershock it expects might hit within 24 hours.
The
aftershock hit the same region as yesterday's quake about 18 km west of the Searles Valley.
The center says the quake is an
aftershock of a magnitude 7.0 Anchorage earthquake that struck on Nov.
Geological Survey said the epicenter of the
aftershock was located 9.8 miles north-northwest of Port-de-Paix, the city hard hit by Saturday night's 5.9 magnitude earthquake.
Phoebe DeVries, Post-Doctoral Fellow at Harvard, notes that "although the timing and size of
aftershocks has been understood, and explained by established empirical laws, forecasting the locations of these events has proven more challenging."
The

Although the consequence of
aftershock has been reported after many earthquake events, the structural response with SFSI in the
aftershock event has not been studied.
