QUESTION 54) The 1929 Earthquake of the Grand Banks of Newfoundland triggered a tsunami. What was the cause of the tsunami? A) The displacement of fault blocks in a megathrust earthquake B) An Underwater volcanic eruption C) An Underwater Landslide (or slump of material) D) An Asteroid/comet impact in ocean E) None of the Above QUESTION 55) Some of the efforts that Canada has in place to reduce future Earthquake losses include: A) Implementing building codes so that structures will be designed to resist moderate earthquakes. B) Produce Seismic hazard maps and update them regularly C) Conduct Subduction zone studies using GPS, marine mapping and paleoseismological studies D) Produce crustal models to understand seismic wave propagation and earthquake shaking in various geological settings E) All of the above quetion 56) Based on Figure 2. (Map of Major Tectonic features in Canada) on page 3 from Cassidy et. al. (2010) Which earthquake event number (from data sheet June 20 – July 18, 2021 attached below) corresponds to the following Major Tectonic Feature: Cordilleran Orogen =(type in the number ONLY ) Grenville Province = (type in the number ONLY )
