FYI (for your information)

i have had read some articles that said  about "megathrust". i did not know what does it mean. from  my conclusion mega-thrust was a big earthqauake. and now i have read in WIKIPWEDIA about megathrust . and this what they said.
         Megathrust earthquakes occur at subduction zones at destructive plate boundaries (convergent boundaries), where one tectonic plate is subducted (forced underneath) by another. Due to the shallow dip of the plate boundary, which causes large sections to get stuck, these earthquakes are among the world's largest, with moment magnitudes () that can exceed 9.0. Since 1900, all six earthquakes of magnitude 9.0 or greater have been megathrust earthquakes. No other type of known tectonic activity can produce earthquakes of this scale.The major subduction zone is associated with the Pacific and Indian Oceans and is responsible for the volcanic activity associated with the Pacific Ring of Fire. Since these earthquakes deform the ocean floor, they almost always generate a significant series of tsunami waves. They are known to produce intense shaking for long periods, such as several minutes.

   i think that enough to make you know about "megathrust" if you want to know more you can go to here.
