Controversy about California coming to a 9-magnitude earthquake
Former member of the US Geological Survey (USGS), Jim Berkland predicted that a strong 9-magnitude earthquake will occur in California this month.
Jim Berkland, who correctly guessed many California earthquakes, especially the San Franciso match in October 1989, said that the phenomenon of thousands of dead fish in California's Redondo Beach during the same time as the stock. Millions of fish are heading to South America, while the whooping whale in San Diego are signs that a natural phenomenon is about to happen.

In addition, Mr. Berkland also cited the phenomenon of ' Super Moon ' to confirm that a strong earthquake like the March 11 earthquake in Japan will impact California.
There is also a close view of Newweek's science writer, Jim Berkland, that Simon Winchester recently confirmed that Japan's 9-magnitude quake in Japan and what happened in New Zealand or Chile is increasing the risk of this natural phenomenon in California.
In his article, Mr. Winchester pointed out: ' There have been three earthquakes in three directions on the Pacific Ocean. One happened in the northwest on March 11, in Japan; one in the southwest last month and one happened last year in the southeast. And an unaffected direction is Northeast, this is towards California . '
However, the views of the two figures mentioned above have been rejected by David Schwartz, USGS earthquake expert. He said: ' Simon Winchester is just a science writer, not a real scientist. I do not deny that there will be a future California earthquake, but there is no link between the earthquakes he raised . '
Meanwhile, Nathan Bangs, a physicist teaching at the Texas Geography Institute, also said there was no link between earthquakes in the Pacific. He said: ' I don't know why Newsweek can confirm such information. I see no connection between those natural disasters . '
