I also need how many people die during the earthquakes.  My project is due Friday.

Try the www.usgs.gov, it is the US geological survery website they have all kinds of information on things like that.  If the info you want isn't there there will probably be a link that you can find for that information.

The human impacts of the disaster are staggering. In addition to the up to 800 people who lost their lives, there was almost one half of a billion dollars in property and economic damage. The economy of central Luzon was horribly disrupted. In 1991, the volcano destroyed 4,979 homes and damaged another 70,257. The following year 3,281 homes were destroyed and 3,137 were damaged. Damage following the eruption was usually caused by lahars - rain-induced torrents of volcanic debris that killed people and animals and buried homes in the months after the eruption. Additionally, a 1992 eruption in August 1992 killed 72 people.\n\n Structures on the two largest U.S. military bases in the Philippines--Clark Air Base and Subic Bay Naval Station--were heavily damaged by ash from the volcano's climactic eruption.\nUnited States military never returned to Clark Air Base, turning over the damaged base to the Philippine government on November 26, 1991. The region is still rebuilding and recovering from the eruption.\n\nThe eruption is believed to have influenced such events as 1993 floods along the Mississippi river and the drought in the Sahel region of Africa. The United States experienced its third coldest and third wettest summer in 77 years during 1992. No dollar amount has been given to loss of crops or other economic difficuties due to these occurrences.\n\nFortunately, scientists from the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology and the U.S. Geological Survey had forecast Pinatubo's 1991 climactic eruption, resulting in the saving of at least 5,000 lives and at least $250 million in property. Commercial aircraft were warned about the hazard of the ash cloud from the June 15 eruption, and most avoided it, but a number of jets flying far to the west of the Philippines encountered ash and sustained about $100 million in damage. Although much equipment was successfully protected, structures on the two largest U.S. military bases in the Philippines--Clark Air Base and Subic Bay Naval Station--were heavily damaged by ash from the volcano's climactic eruption.\n\nNearly 20 million tons of sulfur dioxide were injected into the stratosphere in Pinatubo's 1991 eruptions, and dispersal of this gas cloud around the world caused global temperatures to drop temporarily (1991 through 1993) by about 1°F (0.5°C). The eruptions have dramatically changed the face of central Luzon, home to about 3 million people. About 20,000 indigenous Aeta highlanders, who had lived on the slopes of the volcano, were completely displaced, and most still wait in resettlement camps for the day when they can return home. About 200,000 people who evacuated from the lowlands surrounding Pinatubo before and during the eruptions have returned home but face continuing threats from lahars that have already buried numerous towns and villages. Rice paddies and sugar-cane fields that have not been buried by lahars have recovered; those buried by lahars will be out of use for years to come.\n\nThere are lots of websites on this.

I think you'll have a hard time finding even one fatality outside of Hollywood movies. People are even more buoyant in quicksand than they are in water. Consider how much greater the density of sand and water must be than just water. Quartz has a density of 2.6, and water 1, so a quicksand is likely to be nearer to 2.6 than 1. Here is what some researchers found: \n(I quote from msnbc link below) "The density of an average human body is about 62 pounds per cubic foot, which is less than quicksand's 125 pounds per cubic foot." \n Besides that most natural quicksand is not deep enough for anyone to sink completely into it. \n\nWhat you might find are casualties from liquefaction, which is caused by earthquakes shaking soft water-saturated ground, often sandy. However, most of the casualties will be the result of buildings sinking and collapsing into soft wet sand substrates, and are not likely to be from someone actually sinking in sand. \nHere's a good liquefaction website:\nhttp://www.ce.washington.edu/~liquefaction/html/main.html\n\nAnother place where something resembling quicksand causes fatalities are volcanic lahars. These are the consistency of wet concrete and move very quickly down slopes destroying houses and anything in their path. No one gets a chance to walk across one while it is moving, so a fatality related to a lahar is more like being buried under a landslide.  \nHere is an article on lahar hazards:\nhttp://www.agiweb.org/geotimes/apr04/feature_MountRainier.html\n\nHere is an article where researchers found the a mass the equivalent of a human body was impossible to sink in quicksand:\nhttp://msnbc.msn.com/id/9516779/

Krakatoa.\n\nAmazingly it was not the eruption that caused the deaths.  It was after the explosion, that the outer walls gave in and the volcano was filled with water.  When the volcano caved in the water rushed in and due to the properties of wave the inward rush reflected outward in the act of a giant tsunami.  This Tsunami is what killed the settlers of Oceania.\n\nExample:  Fill you bathtub with water and take a bowl.  Now push the bowl into the water (cavity up) until the water starts to flood the bowl very quickly.  Now look at the resulting wave, now try to put the wave you saw to scale of a bowl about a half mile to a mile wide in the middle of the ocean.  This is why geologists are scared of Krakatoa erupting again.

check ou the US Geological Survey website. they should have maps and numbers for you.

Go to the United States Geological Survey website at www.usgs.gov  They have a list of the most recent earthquakes. It's kind of a fun site to see anyway.

There is a high death toll and huge economic losses.. estimates given below n in wikipedia.. the list is long, just to mention a couple.. read on.. \n\nEffect on India \nAccording to the table of casualties on the Home Ministry website 10,749 casualties have been confirmed on the 18th January 2005, most of them in the state of Tamil Nadu. There were 5,640 people missing, nearly all of them on the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. In the meantime the death toll has been slashed down by 1,458, and the number of missing by 2,927 on the Andaman and Nicobar Islands [1]. \nEffect on Indonesia \nIndonesia's Ministry of Health confirmed 131,029 deaths on June 18th 2005, mainly in the northern province Aceh of the island Sumatra. The number of people missing are some 37,000. \nEffect on Malaysia \nDespite its proximity to the incident, Malaysia escaped the kind of damage that struck countries thousands of miles further away. The number of deaths currently stands at 69 with 5 people missing. \nEffect on the Maldives \nIn the Maldives, 82 were killed and 26 reported missing and presumed dead. \nEffect on Myanmar \nIndependent media reports 90 people killed in Myanmar due to the tsunami. The official death toll is 61. Witnesses in Myanmar estimate up to 600 deaths. \nEffect on Somalia \nVillages and coastal communities in Somalia, as far as 4,500 km (2,800 mi) from the epicentre of the earthquake, were swept away and destroyed by the huge waves. 176 people were confirmed dead, 136 were missing and more than 50,000 have been displaced. ......

220,000 people died very far away, mostly in indonesia and other countries with high muslim populations that aren't US friendly.  Not exactly high on the US news list.  And generally, no one cares about anything that happens elsewhere for too long after it happens.  It's called human nature.  we care about ourselves and those close to us and the rest can go jump off a cliff

I live on the island of Lefkas in Greece and we often have earthquakes. The last big one, 7.2 on the Richter scale, was three years ago. There are a few different plates around here under the Ionian sea. As it was August and the height of the tourist season it was fortunate that no one was killed. Except for injuries caused by falling rock and roof tiles we were very lucky. The reason you don't hear about Greek earthquakes is because our houses have to be built to very strict regulations and they don't fall down! No body bags, no news as far as the press is concerned. Thank goodness.
