COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Ohio Stadium is sure to be rocking on Saturday when Ohio State and Michigan take the football field, and geologists will find out just how much through the use of seismographs.Ohio State and Miami University professors teamed up with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources to devise the FanQuakes Magnitude Scale, and have planted sensors around the stadium this year to measure the seismic activity created by fans.The scale converts the shaking coming from fans into the perceived magnitude of a naturally occurring earthquake. Ohio States stadium seats nearly 105,000.So far this season, the biggest quake came after Curtis Samuels touchdown catch at the beginning of the second half against Nebraska. The shaking lasted more than two minutes and reached a FanQuake Magnitude of 5.2.Researchers said they expect fans at Saturdays game between No. 2-ranked Ohio State and third-ranked Michigan to take it to another level.The project was conceived as a way to help students understand concepts in geology that are sometimes hard to grasp, according to a statement from Ohio State.Well feature the measurements in classes, so that undergraduates can engage with real-world data and connect it to an experience many of them have had in person, said project leader Derek Sawyer, assistant professor of earth sciences at Ohio State. At a more advanced level, well use the data to teach data reduction and collection as well as wave propagation, earthquakes and the local geology.Researchers say they have been surprised by the effects of music from Ohio States marching band.We expected that the most exciting plays would make the biggest fan quakes, and thats true, Miami University geologist Michael Brudzinski said in a statement. But sometimes the fan quakes grow even larger after the play is done, because the music starts. The music helps the fans to jump in unison, which leads to even stronger shaking of the stands.Jeffrey Fox, a seismologist at the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, said fan quakes present a good opportunity to get people thinking about earthquake hazards in general.As more and more people move to and live in earthquake-prone areas, they should be aware of seismic risk, Fox said. Even in areas such as Ohio, where the risk is low, its not zero. Swell Bottle Clearance .

The NCAA announced Friday that UCLA associate head football coach Adrian Klemm violated ethical conduct rules when he paid for two prospects to receive private training, according to a decision by the Division I committee on infractions panel.The panel penalized Klemm with a $5,000 fine and two-year show-cause order.UCLA previously suspended Klemm with pay during 2015 spring practices and recruiting, as well as for the first two games of the 2015 season after the schools investigation.Klemm admitted to paying $2,400 for housing and private training sessions for two prospects, but claimed he was not aware that violated NCAA rules because he believed the prospects had signed national letters of intent. The prospects had committed to UCLA but had not yet enrolled, according to UCLAs internal investigation, which begin in March 2015.This was a good lesson for all of our coaches and staff -- we must kknow every single NCAA rule and adhere to them, period, UCLA coach Jim Mora said in a statement released by the school.ddddddddddddSaid Klemm in the same statement, While I certainly did not intentionally violate NCAA rules, the fact of the matter is that I did violate NCAA rules, and I accept full responsibility. I need to be aware of every rule, and I will be moving forward.The case was resolved through the summary disposition process, which the NCAA described as a cooperative effort during which the involved parties collectively submit the case to the Committee on Infractions in written form. The NCAA enforcement staff, university and involved individuals must agree to the facts and overall level of the case in order to use this process instead of a formal hearing. ' ' '
