Hurricanes and typhoons may trigger major earthquakes, according to new study

Hurricanes and typhoons may trigger major earthquakes, according to new study: "Hurricanes and typhoons could contribute to other natural disasters that occur long after the rain and winds subside. A new study led by University of Miami (UM) scientist Shimon Wdowinski finds a link between earthquakes and tropical storms, and shows that they may have actually initiated some major temblors, including the recent 2010 quakes in Haiti and Taiwan."
