I recently participated in a three-week-long, National Science Foundation-funded research cruise to the Mariana Trench. Our ...

Crews are finishing up digging a 125-foot hole to install a test foundation that they'll use to test the earthquake-resistant ...

January 26 marked the 325th anniversary since the last earthquake struck the Cascadia subduction zone. Centuries later, the ...

There's often little warning when a tsunami strikes, but a research team at USF aims to improve the forecasting of these ...

Jan. 26, 2025, marks 325 years since the last great earthquake on the Cascadia subduction zone. It’s a time to reflect on what we’ve learned about this largest fault system in the lower 48 states ...

Los Angeles and other areas in California are among the highest-risk areas for wildfires — but they're not the only ones. Many fires take place in areas where humans have overstepped into nature ...

These areas were defined as Restricted Zones, though they were commonly called No-Fly Zones, and they were a result of DJI geofencing datasets in the company's flight apps. DJI claims that user ...

Megathrust earthquakes occur when stress at subduction zones is released, causing significant plate slippage. These events disrupt long-term tectonic changes, complicating modeling efforts.

Here, however, the new high-resolution model shows massive plate-like blobs all over the world, far from any of the subduction zones known in recent geological history: beneath the western Pacific ...
