Faults once thought to be 'creeping' yet stable may be at risk for big ruptures

Deep-learning models can be trained to assess the magnitude of mega earthquakes in real time

Researchers now think the region's widespread loss of glacier ice helped set the stage for 1958 quake

Scientist makes a breakthrough in understanding the rupture mechanisms that eventually lead to seismic shifts along fault lines

Researchers have discovered that seismic rumblings on the seafloor can provide them with another tool for monitoring the temperature of ocean waters

New study reveals a better understanding of the hotly debated processes that control the planet's magnetic field 

Test under Monterey Bay shows undersea fiber-optic cables can detect quakes, fault systems

Predicting the amount of seismic activity from wastewater injection is difficult because it involves numerous variables

In a study of Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano, the researchers reported that pressure changes in the volcano’s summit reservoirs helped explain the number of earthquakes—or seismicity—in the upper East Rift Zone

Years ago, scientists realized that earthquakes along mid-ocean ridges are linked with the tides. But nobody could figure out why there’s an uptick in tremors during low tides
