Seismological research is directly related to the incubation, occurrence, and evolution of earthquakes. Scientists seek to ...

Researchers have mathematically elucidated how the presence of crystals and gas bubbles in magma affects the propagation of seismic P-waves. A novel equation was derived to describe the travel of ...

Scientists seek to reveal potential earthquake precursors by monitoring the stress state of fault zones, thus providing bases for earthquake prevention and mitigation. It is hard to measure the ...

Earthquakes create ripple effects in Earth's upper atmosphere that can disrupt satellite communications and navigation ...

Coastal communities from northern California to British Columbia live atop the Cascadia Subduction Zone, which spans about ...

What they found was surprising. "There wasn't much evidence that (the megasplay fault) existed," said Harold Tobin, Pacific Northwest Seismic Network director and UW professor. "There are places ...

The field of advanced materials engineering is undergoing transformative shifts to meet the escalating demand for disaster-resilient infrastructure in ...

but the paper decided to take the World Series section and convert it into an earthquake section. I was in downtown Palo Alto in a Mercury News office which was, at the time, on Hamilton Avenue ...

April 16, 2026 (Julian) -- While the 5.2 earthquake centered in Julian Monday was minor, the Elsinore Fault that produced it is capable of an 7.5 magnitude earthquake. Another thing to consider is ...
