horizontal and more, suggesting that extensional forces play a large role. Figure 9 includes
the mechanisms of 82 out of the 99 earthquakes in total located between 17 and 26 km
depth and thus shows nearly the same results as described earlier for that interval, that the
tension axis is chiefly horizontal

on Climate Change best estimates for the global mean temperature
change by the end of the 21st century vary from 1.8 qC to 4.0 qC between the SRES scenarios
with the smallest (B1) and the largest (A1FI) greenhouse gas emissions (IPCC 2007). For
shorter time horizons, however, the scenario uncertainty is much smaller. On one hand, there
is inertia in the socio-economical system
