Faults occur where these plates grind against each other. As the plates move—typically at the rate at which a finger nail grows—the rocks on either side of the fault bend to accommodate that movement, building up stress that eventually exceeds the rock strength and forces the fault to rupture, the rocks to snap back to their original shapes, and the stored energy to be released as a shock wave—the earthquake. ]]></media:description>                                                            <media:text><![CDATA[Chistchurch earthquake (New Zealand, 2011)]]></media:text>
