How Earthquakes Happen Earthquake is one of the most destroying natural disasters. Unluckily it often
happens in several regions. Recently a horrible earthquake has shaken West Sumatra. It has brought great
damages. Why did it occur? Do you know how an earthquake happens? Earthquakes are usually caused when
rock underground suddenly breaks along a fault. This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves. It
make the ground shake. When two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing against each other, they stick a
little. They don't just slide smoothly. The rocks are still pushing against each other, but not moving. After a
while, the rocks break because of all the pressure that's built up. When the rocks break, the earthquake
occurs. During the earthquake and afterward, the plates or blocks of rock start moving, and they continue to
move until they get stuck again. The spot underground where the rock breaks is called the focus of the
earthquake. The place right above the focus is called the epicenter of the earthquake.

How Desert Remains Dry These are three possible reason why desert remain dry. These are high mountain
barrier, cold ocean current and high pressure system. When warm air passes over the ocean it pick up
moisture in the form of water vapor and this moist air travels over mountain ranges. When begins to rise, the
air cool and this causes the water vapor to condense into droplets which falls as rain. When the air reaches
the other side of the mountain barrier, it has lost all moisture and so the other side of the mountain remains
dry. Cold Ocean Current Air passing over old ocean current is cooled and therefore is unable to pick up and
hold much moisture. When this cold air mass reaches the warm desert, any moisture in the air is evaporated
and so does not fall as rain and so the desert remains dry.
