A submarine telecommunications cable connecting New Zealand and Australia is doubling as an earthquake sensor, in a new trial ...
When comparing the original laser signal with the light that exits the fiber optic cable, researchers can determine the strength of the seismic wave by checking how much the beam was distorted. Data ...
A string of earthquakes has hit Washington in recent weeks. Are they connected, and do they tell us anything about the odds ...
Solar heat may influence earthquakes and their timings by altering rock brittleness and underground water movement.
scientists understand that earthquakes occur when tectonic plates shift, causing strain energy to accumulate. Eventually, ...
Japanese scientists have discovered new significant correlations between solar activity and earthquakes, according to recent ...
Researchers explore the likelihood that Earth's climate, as affected by solar heat, plays a role in seismic activity. Using mathematical and computational methods, they analyzed earthquake data ...
Tectonic plates move, causing strain energy to build up, and that energy eventually releases in the form of an earthquake. As ...
For decades, seismologists have worked to understand and predict earthquakes, but forecasting remains elusive. Now, ...
Seismology has previously revealed that tectonic plates move, causing strain energy to build up, and that energy eventually ...
Many on X joked that the tremor was retribution for the awards show. 'Just felt an earthquake... even the Earth's mad as hell over the Oscars OMFG,' one user wrote. 'Earthquake is God punishing ...
An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 3.9 jolted through Los Angeles, mere hours after the Academy Awards concluded on Sunday night. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the quake ...
