Scientists are warning that a 1,000-foot-tall “mega tsunami” could potentially wipe a large chunk of America off the map – if ...

Researchers found that a potential powerful earthquake combined with rising sea levels could lead to a mega tsunami.

Scientists are warning that a 300-metre-tall “mega tsunami” could potentially wipe a large chunk of America off the map – if ...

When we think of earthquakes, we imagine sudden, violent shaking. But deep beneath Earth's surface, some faults move in near ...

The US Geological Survey (USGS) detected the seismic activity along the San Andreas Fault, which spans 800 miles from Cape Mendocino in the north to the Salton Sea in the south. Scientists warn ...

Scientists have warned that the Mendocino Fault is capable of producing large earthquakes, including those of magnitude 7 or larger. The USGS showed the tremor struck off the coast of Petrolia in ...

California experienced three earthquakes in an area being closely monitored for a major quake on Thursday and Friday.

In terms of energy released, it was roughly 500 times weaker than our 7.0 on the Mendocino fault last December. But there were a lot more people who felt it. Over 40,000 people filed reports on ...

In Northern California, however, the activity of small earthquakes near Cape Mendocino disturbs the regularity of the fault, and the tremor is produced in small, disorganized episodes. Scientists have ...

As the day wore on, other evidence began to accumulate that the Honeydew fault plane was not the culprit in this case. This graph compares the relative shaking strength of the Cape Mendocino ...
