it was a magnitude 7 earthquake, but it was some way away from mexico city, and still buildings in mexico city collapsed. so what is behind this earthquake and why does it seem so severe? countries around the pacific lie on what is called the ring of fire, where the geology is highly active. so mexico has repeatedly suffered from quakes caused yesterday by a violent shift in the rock. the cocos tectonic plate pushing into the north american plate. if we look at a cross section, you can see how one of these plates is actually sliding under the other, moving ata speed of eight centimetres a year, so massive pressures build up, and occasionally there is a sudden rupture. but making things even worse is that much of mexico city has been built on land that is unusually soft, so any tremors from an earthquake are amplified. mexico city sits in this old lake bed, soft sediments with a lot of water in them, so when the earthquake strikes it, it just goes like jelly. they get really high shaking. a lot of the buildings cannot handle it and they just collapse. so, long before this latest quake, the
