Can a Tidal Wave Provoke and Intensify an Earthquake? (¿Puede un maremoto provocar e intensificar un terremoto? Могут ли цунами вызывать и усиливать землетрясения? 潮汐能引发和加剧地震吗？ 津波は地震を引き起こし、激化させることができますか?)

Abstract

English Abstract: 
The question about provocative influence of tidal wave column weight or high pressure of technological fluid on processes of earthquake energy release has been widely discussed in the geophysical community for a long time. Below we will give examples of scientific articles from Nature magazine, in which scientists express their hypotheses about processes of acquisition and realization of rock masses energy of tidal wave or from influence on them of high pressure of liquid. By the word liquids we mean not only water of tides, but also technological and discharge liquids pumped into bowels of the planet for different purposes, and also volumes of water in reservoirs and other hydraulic engineering constructions. It is natural to assume that in order a trigger effect and start a tidal earthquake, it is necessary to inform the rock massif of the energy serving as a "spark plug". Unfortunately, both in the considered and in other numerous articles on this topic, the mechanism and source of seismic energy formation of both the tidal wave and the trigger shock are not specified, and the kinematics of the process is described in insignificant general phrases. This leads to complete uncertainty on this issue, because without knowing the kinematics and the process of energy formation from the impact of large volumes of fluid on the rock massif, the discussion of this issue loses all sense and descends to the level of fantasy. In this article we reveal the source and mechanism of earthquake energy formation, applying which it is possible to draw a conclusion about the dependence of seismicity on tidal fluxes and technological fluids pumped under great pressure into the Earth's interior.
