France24 says a rare geological phenomenon has occurred in Morocco’s Atlas Mountains following a large earthquake on September 8. While the earthquake’s scars are still visible, new water sources have emerged in the region, providing much-needed relief in an area accustomed to droughts. People are amazed by the sudden appearance of these water sources, which started flowing after the earthquake, even without rain or snow. Authorities have identified 45 sources of drought in recent years, and the earthquake has increased the flow of these sources. However, it’s important to note that this phenomenon doesn’t add more water to the region; it simply liberates existing water in the rock, which can benefit some villages but may reduce the flow of sources in other areas. Geologists explain that the earthquake closed some pockets of water while opening others, contributing to this unique water flow phenomenon. Full article here.
