Hu Hu, deputy director of the Municipal Seismological Bureau, said that after the Fuyang earthquake, the earthquake monitoring system of the Municipal Earthquake Monitoring Center automatically alerted the police, and the personnel on duty immediately opened the earthquake waveform for analysis. By comparing and analyzing the waveforms of the surrounding stations, the positioning was quickly completed.
At the same time, the Municipal Seismological Bureau launched an earthquake emergency plan, requiring the personnel on duty to do a good job in earthquake monitoring and collect earthquake disaster information in time. The observation data is continuous and reliable, and the data is submitted accurately and timely. "According to the earthquake monitoring system of the Municipal Earthquake Monitoring Center, there will be no earthquake of magnitude 5 or above in our city in the near future." Hu said:
"The public should have a correct understanding of the earthquake phenomenon. Earthquakes are natural phenomena. Just like wind and rain, it happens all over the world every day, and most of them are harmless to human beings. " Nonsense, citizens are prone to two misunderstandings about earthquakes. One is that there will be no earthquake in Bozhou, and the other is that the earthquake is terrible. In fact, we can neither relax our awareness of earthquake prevention and disaster reduction, nor panic, but should pay attention to accumulating the skills of earthquake prevention and disaster reduction and escape at ordinary times.
It is understood that in recent years, many new residential areas in our city are basically designed according to the requirements of the Seismological Bureau. After seismic safety evaluation, they can resist earthquakes with intensity of 7 degrees. The self-built houses in rural areas are the buildings with the weakest seismic capacity and the most vulnerable to disasters, because most rural houses are not scientifically planned and the designed houses are not built according to the seismic fortification standards.
"There is a proverb about earthquakes. A big earthquake can't run away, and a small earthquake doesn't have to run. Everyone should learn basic escape skills, stay calm when encountering an earthquake, and don't panic. " Hu reminded the general public that on the basis of a correct understanding of earthquake phenomena, they should learn more earthquake prevention skills in peacetime, strengthen the ability of buildings to prevent earthquakes and reduce disasters, and plan ahead, so that even if an earthquake does come, the losses can be minimized.
