Experts: Measures to block coronavirus spread have reduced seismic 'noise' in Greece

Measures to restrict traffic in order to reduce the spread of coronavirus have begun to have a positive impact on the environment and even on the Earth itself, which has not only become quieter and cleaner but is also shaking less, with scientists recording a marked drop in seismic “noise”, ANA reports.

 In addition to the reduction in air pollution levels over Europe seen by satellites, the measures have had another more unexpected “side effect”. Their characteristic seismic footprint is already visible in Greece, based on data recorded by the United National Seismological Network, Greek scientists note.
