Summary

Description
English: US states with reported cryoseisms.
  • Also known as a frost quake, they may be caused by a sudden cracking action in frozen soil or rock saturated with water or ice.
  • As water seeps down into the rock, it freezes and expands, putting stress on surrounding rock. This builds up until it is relieved explosively in a cryoseism.
Italiano: Stati USA che riportano criosismi.
