An earthquake expert explains why the death and devastation have been so terrible in Turkey and Syria
When Monday’s earthquake struck, many poorly constructed buildings suffered a ‘pancake mode’ collapse.
The Java quake was so devastating in part because it occurred so close to the surface.
Oral histories talk about a major tectonic event 250 years ago, which changed the course of a river flowing through Lae today.
When researchers look at CCTV footage of how people really react during earthquakes – as opposed to what they report after the fact – it looks like alerts aren’t yet inspiring protective action.
California was thought to be an exception, a place where oil field operations and tectonic faults apparently coexisted without much problem. Not any more.
Measuring seismic noice could show whether people are following future lockdown measures.
Scientists say they’ve found a new method to help predict when volcanoes will erupt, based on data crunched from an eruption last year in Hawaii.
The early warning system installed after the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami hasn’t lived up to expectations.
Researchers are using a rubber-soil mixture to make earthquake-proof foundations.
As Indonesia reels from two deadly earthquakes, it’s time to rebuild smarter and stronger.
A new array of seismometers provides a glimpse of what’s happening deep beneath this geologic fault. New data help explain why the north and south of the region are more seismically active than the middle.
Two separate studies have concluded that fracking was the likely cause of a fault line rupture, precipitating the 5.5 earthquake.
