{{Earthquake}}

A 2006-os hengcsuni földrengés 2006. december 26-án, az egyezményes koordinált világidő szerint 12:25-kor (helyi idő szerint 20:25-kor) történt. Epicentruma Tajvan partjaitól délnyugatra, a tajvani Pingtung megye Hengcsun városától körülbelül 22,8 km-re délnyugatra volt, pontos hipocentruma pedig 21,9 km mélyen, a Dél-kínai-tengert a Filippínó-tengerrel összekötő Luzon-árok alatt (é. sz. 21° 53′ 24″, k. h. 120° 33′ 36″21.890000°N 120.560000°E).

A rengés magnitúdóját a különböző jelentések némileg különbözően adják meg: a tajvani meteorológiai szolgálat a földrengés erősségét a Richter-skálán 7.0 magnitúdóra teszi [1], az Egyesült Államok földtani intézete 7.1 momentummagnitúdóra (Mw)[* 1] [2], a hongkongi obszervatórium [3] és a japán meteorológiai ügynökség [4] pedig 7.2 momentummagnitúdóra. A földrengésben két ember meghalt; s ezen kívül nem csak épületekben estek anyagi károk, de a rengés számos tengerfenéki távközlési kábelt is megrongált, s ezzel Ázsia különböző részeiben időlegesen megszakította a telekommunikációt. Véletlen egybeesés, hogy a földrengés a Délkelet- és Dél-Ázsia tengerpartjait sújtó 2004-es karácsonyi szökőár második évfordulóján, és az irán Bámot elpusztító 2003-as földrengés harmadik évfordulóján történt.

Károk

[szerkesztés]

Tajvan

[szerkesztés]

A hírügynökségek összedőlt házakról, épülettüzekről, felvonókban ragadt hotelvendégekről és a megszakított vonalak miatti telefonkimaradásokról számoltak be Dél-Tajvanon. A tudósítások szerint két ember meghalt és 42 megsérült. A földrengést Tajvan-szerte érezni lehetett, így a fővárosban, Tajpejben is, amely Hengcsuntól 450 km-re északra fekszik.[5]

Háromezer lakásban volt áramszünet, de órákon belül helyreállították a szolgáltatást. Másnap már folyamatban volt a romeltakarítás.

Hengcsun történelmi központjában tizenöt műemléképület sérült meg.

A földrengés érintette a tajvani elektromos művek közelben fekvő atomerőművét: az erőteljes rengés miatt beindult a kettes számú reaktor riasztórendszere, s az erőmű dolgozói azonnali vészleállást hajtottak végre; az egyes számú reaktor szabályosan tovább üzemelt. A kettes számú reaktor leállítása után a mérnökök átvizsgálták az erőmű berendezéseit, de nem találtak semmilyen problémát. [6]

Hongkong és Makaó

[szerkesztés]

Hongkong számos körzetében érezték a lakosok a földrengést. Attól való félelmükben, hogy az épület, amiben tartózkodnak, összedől, a Sham Shui Po, Wong Tai Sin és Yuen Long körzetekben sokan az utcákra szaladtak.[7] A hongkongi obszervatórium a rengés erősségét III-IV-es fokozatúnak becsülte a módosított Mercalli-skálán.

Residents in different districts of Hong Kong felt the earthquake. Fearing the collapse of their buildings, people in Sham Shui Po, Wong Tai Sin and Yuen Long ran down to the streets.[8] The Hong Kong Observatory estimated the tremor as Modified Mercalli intensity scale of III to IV.[9] In Macau, residents called the Office for Meteorological and Geophysical Services to ask whether earthquake occurred in their city.

China

[szerkesztés]

There were no reports of major damage in China although the quake could be felt there. In Xiamen, Fujian, people evacuated from their home and office to open spaces.[10] The earthquake could also be felt in various cities in Guangdong province and Fujian province (e.g. Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shantou and Fuzhou.)[11]

Aftershocks

[szerkesztés]

Aftershocks greater than 5 Richter magnitude scale (or more correctly local magnitude ML scale) are listed in the table below:

In addition, three others were reported that were of at least 4.7 intensity according to the Taiwan's Central Weather Bureau [19].

Tsunami warning

[szerkesztés]

Taiwan

[szerkesztés]

This earthquake marked the first time Taiwan detected a tsunami. Fortunately, the change in water level was only 25 cm, causing no damage.[20]

Warning from agencies in other areas

[szerkesztés]

Early reports issued by the Japan Meteorological Agency indicated that the earthquake triggered a 1 meter tsunami, which was detected heading for the east coast of the Philippines, with Basco in its likely path.[21] The Hong Kong Observatory also issued tsunami information bulletin [22], while indicating Hong Kong would likely be unaffected.

Disruption in communications

[szerkesztés]

The earthquake catastrophically disrupted Internet services in Asia, affecting many Asian countries. Financial transactions, particularly in the foreign exchange market were seriously affected as well.[23][24] The aforementioned disruption was caused by damage to several submarine communications cables.[25]

China Telecom reported that several international submarine communications cables had been broken [26][27], including:

Taiwan

[szerkesztés]
Map showing the impact of the earthquake

Chunghwa Telecom stated that an undersea cable off the southern coast had been damaged [30], interrupting communications (including IDD, telephone services and internet services) of Taiwan with China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and the United States. The international calling capacity was reduced to 40%.[31]

China

[szerkesztés]

IDD, telephone services and internet services of China with North America was seriously affected by the earthquake. However, China Telecom announced on December 31 that IDD services had resumed to normal level. Internet services had resumed to 70% of normal level. As the undersea cables to North America was seriously damaged by the earthquake, the quality of internet services depends on the progress of repairing work.[32]

Hong Kong

[szerkesztés]

Starting from the dawn of December 27, connection between foreign web sites/servers and Hong Kong internet users kept failing. Wikipedia, search engines, online messengers like ICQ and MSN Messenger, and portals like Google, Yahoo! and MSN have been largely unavailable. Access to Chinese Wikipedia was cut by the earthquake too, as the servers are located in South Korea.[33] Websites located in mainland China, such as xinhuanet.com, the website of Xinhua News Agency, were also unaccessible.

On December 29, the Office of the Telecommunications Authority (OFTA) [1] of Hong Kong Government announced that, IDD and roaming calls to Taiwan have resumed to 50% of the normal level. IDD and roaming calls to other Asian countries (e.g. South Korea) are slower than normal condition. Calls from Hong Kong to overseas using calling cards have the same situation as the IDD and roaming calls.[34]

However, calling from overseas to Hong Kong using calling cards is still facing serious congestion.[35]

For internet services, as of December 29, connections to web sites in the U.S., South Korea, Japan and Taiwan were still very slow. However, the situation was improving, sites which could not be accessed before (e.g. Wikipedia, Google, YouTube) were available at extremely slow speed.[36] Among the internet service providers in Hong Kong, PCCW's Netvigator was the slowest to resume enough bandwidth for their users.[37] Therefore, as a temporary remedy, many internet users in Hong Kong used proxy servers in Australia, Thailand, Spain or even the UAE and Kuwait to access foreign websites.

As of December 31, the situation of internet connection had improved. Although sites that were previously unavailable became accessible, the connection speed was still slower than normal.[38]

Philippines

[szerkesztés]

The earthquake has cut PLDT's capacity and connectivity by as much as 40 percent [39] The two largest Philippine mobile communications companies Smart Communications and Globe Telecom had also reported some international connectivity problems at that time. The rest (60%) of telephone and Internet capacity was operational as carriers rerouted through other links to North America, the Middle East, Hawaii, Malaysia and Singapore.[39] Call centers and other outsourced business processes that have become a major industry in the Philippines feared that the cable damage might hamper their operations dramatically; only two centers were totally shut down due to the problems.[39]

United States

[szerkesztés]

In the United States, several networks and bloggers have experienced a noticeable reduction of the volume of spam received after the earthquake. A blogger noted that "one large network in North America saw their mail from Korea drop by 90% and from China by 99%."[40]

Other areas

[szerkesztés]

Korea Telecom[28], Malaysia's Telekom Malaysia [41] and Jaring [42], as well as the Communications Authority of Thailand,[43] Singapore's StarHub and SingTel [44] and Brunei's Telbru have also reported disruption to most Internet services. In Singapore, search engines and portals like Google, Yahoo!, MSN and most websites have been virtually unreachable. In Indonesia, Google is not accessible, but Yahoo! and Wikipedia can still be used, though the network connection speed is very slow. Sri Lankan Internet services have likewise been affected. In Malaysia, there were problems with popular Internet services [45] such as Gmail and Yahoo! News, however the situation is reported to be improving on 29 December.

Repairing work

[szerkesztés]

According to the Office of the Telecommunications Authority (OFTA) of Hong Kong Government, among the five cable ships deployed, two arrived at the scene. However, one of the two ships experienced a major fault on December 30 afternoon and was under urgent repair in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. The repair for the ship was estimated to take about a week. Therefore the repair for the cables had to be postponed. It is estimated that the first part of the repair of one of the submarine cables would be completed around January 16, 2007. For the other damaged cables, survey and assessment were being arranged and repair of most of the cables is expected to be completed progressively by the end of January 2007.[46][47]

IDD Services and disrupted internet service in Southeast Asia has been greatly restored pending the repairs and rerouted traffic.[48]

Before the completion of the cable works, however, some countries have already have found alternative methods to restore the internet access. For example, by January 3, 2007, Singapore's SingTel has already fully restored the internet access provided by them.[49] SingNet, SingTel's subsidiary, which does ISP services, has recently released an announcement on its homepage, mentioning that "internet access to services such as gaming and video downloading may experience some delays".[50] Whether or not this is related to the earthquake is unknown, albeit likely.

According to China Daily (January 16) the repairwork might be completed end of January, yet heavy winds in the Bashi Channel have stirred up 10-12 meter waves which makes it impossible to resume work.[51]
