To test if earthquakes that occur successively at different locations are related to each other — in this case, the twin quakes in Davao Oriental after the one in Cebu — geologists employ a technique ...
A subduction zone breaking apart was caught in real time, showing how Earth’s tectonic plates die, detach, and reshape the ...
CORVALLIS, Ore. — Researchers as Oregon State University have developed a new 3D model that allows them to take a closer look at what’s happening beneath the earth’s surface along the Cascadia ...
A new AI tool reveals that Campi Flegrei experienced more than 54,000 earthquakes between 2022 and 2025. By mapping these ...
HAWAII (KITV) - Hawai'i is a seismically active state, as indicated by the thousands of earthquakes recorded each year by the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory. Damaging ground shaking has occurred ...
The Southern California Earthquake Center will utilize the National Science Foundation grant to expand their earthquake modeling programs. (Brittany Shaw / Daily Trojan) The USC-based Southern ...
Plates at subduction zones typically move just a few centimeters per year. But when accumulated stress at these convergent plate boundaries releases suddenly, the plates can slip several meters and ...
In disaster mitigation planning for future large earthquakes, seismic ground motion predictions are a crucial part of early warning systems. The way the ground moves depends on how the soil layers ...
CORVALLIS, Ore. (KTVZ) – Researchers at Oregon State University have developed a computational model for predicting the resilience of local and regional infrastructure networks and the recovery time ...
"Collaborations like ours that aim to integrate coastal geology, earthquake modeling, and future projections of sea level are crucial in developing a complete picture of future tsunami impacts at ...
