Earth has entered a 'long' period of increased seismic activities that will likely trigger more violent quakes in the coming years, a report says.

The report, published by Russian news agency RIA Novosti, has identified regions around the Pacific Ocean as hotspots that might experience earthquakes and tsunamis in the years ahead.

According to the March 12 report, the Pacific seismic zone, including Russia's Far Eastern territories of Kamchatka and Chukotka, the US state of Alaska and coastal regions along South American countries are going through rising seismic activities as the globe enters another period of tectonic activity.

"Seismic activity in the Pacific belt has increased in the recent years... which means that the Earth entered another period of tectonic activity. It is a long process, which is likely to take years," said Vladimir Bormotov, a scientist at the Far Eastern Institute of Tectonics Geophysics in southeastern Russian city of Khabarovsk, quoted by RIA Novosti.

To support his claim, the scientist has pointed to the recent violent earthquakes around the world.

The report comes as another 7.2-magnitude aftershock tremor hit Chile on Thursday.
