KUWAIT, Nov 26 (KUNA) -- The national seismic network at Kuwait Institute
for Scientific Research (KISR) said on Tuesday that it had detected seismic
waves in some of the network's stations, at 10:06 a.m., but no activity that
classifies as an earthquake.
The network's press release indicated the investigation into the
observation showed that the readings were caused by rock ruptures.
It further explained that a seismic wave is a wave of energy that travels
through the Earth's layers, and could be the result of an earthquake,
explosion, or a volcano that imparts low-frequency acoustic energy, and also
some types of human activity. (end)
