Sidoarjo - Mud sidoarjo Response Agency (BPLS) were analyzed turmoil going on around the center burst Lumpur. Because there
allegedly kaitanya between bursts Lumpur and the
earthquake that occurred in several regions in Indonesia recently.
Based on the report BPLS, debit and fluktasi bursts through increased intensity toward the end of September. Even appears splashes (kick) setingi 2 meters, flow continued to grow and kick up more than 5 meters. In normal conditions, flow reached 100 thousand cubic meters per day and the growing volume increases
PR BPLS Acmad Zulkarnain said, there is the uniqueness of the flow is fluctuating bursts. Increased always happens before an earthquake, it also occurs ahead of the earthquake in West Java, Padang, and Ujung Kulon. Based on these phenomena appeared several hypotheses. "We''re collecting data to clarify that hypothesis," he said.
Zulkarnain said, speckle no science or technology capable of predicting the occurrence of earthquakes. But based on the phenomenon that occurs, needs to be done review. Who knows, there was no explanation of the
correlation be associated with this phenomenon.
Zulkarnain did not dare to make sure. Because, all still a hypothesis. Although there is correlation, not biased in making sure the timing of the earthquake, earthquake location, and strength of the earthquake. All that God wills human capabilities remain limited.
Geologists from ITS Amir Widodo considered too early to conclude it. According to him, a blast occurred fluktuatifsering mud and not followed the earthquake. That suggests that there is no correlation between these two things.
He appreciated that gave rise to the hypothesis BPLS it. But, according to him, to do research in a very long to make sure. So, not only the conclusion of a phenomenon in some time.
