Earth Axis Shift



Whole islands may have shifted dozens of metres in Sunday's massive earthquake off Indonesia, with the Earth's axis wobbling and even the length of the day altering by a fraction of a second, scientists say.

I've heard from some colleagues here that the axis may have shifted up to 8 centimeters. It should not affect climate.
