Gooey rocks deep within the San Andreas fault generate silent earthquakes, study finds
Seismologists have been detecting deep, silent earthquakes along the Parkfield segment of the San Andreas fault for years. These tremors occur well below the point where most seismic activity in California is recorded, leaving geologists puzzled about why they happen. Researchers from the University of Southern California and the China Earthquake Administration attempted to find out what’s […]

Cascadia “big one” earthquake would generate a massive tsunami and flood the Washington coast
Experts warn Washington residents to seek higher ground when a large earthquake hits the Pacific coast. The Washington Department of Natural Resources (WA-DNR) simulated a magnitude 9 earthquake located inc the Cascadia Suboduction Zone. Their simulations showed that the quake could trigger a powerful tsunami that can overwhelm Washington’s coastal and shoreline communities. The first wave can travel quickly; coastal locations will be […]

Undersea earthquakes strike Indonesia as Mt. Sinabung erupts again
Two undersea earthquakes struck Sumatra in Indonesia on Wednesday, August 19. They were followed hours later by the eruption of Mt. Sinabung in North Sumatra. The first earthquake, a magnitude 6.8, hit 13.6 miles below the sea. The epicenter was located about 86 miles west-southwest of Bengkulu city on the western coast of Sumatra Island. It […]

Carbon dioxide may be the key to unlocking vast natural gas resources, research says
Carbon dioxide may be used to help produce natural gas from deposits buried deep beneath the Earth. A recent study is proposing that air and carbon dioxide injected into methane ice deposits that are buried beneath the Gulf of Mexico could unlock vast natural energy resources. Researchers from the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) […]

The appearance of deep-sea fish in Japanese shallow waters DOESN’T mean an earthquake is about to occur, explain scientists
According to Japanese folklore, deep-sea fish such as oarfish, ribbonfish, dealfish and crestfish appearing in shallow waters foretells of an impending disaster, such as a tsunami, an earthquake or both. However, a statistical analysis of deep-sea fish sightings in Japan has now proven that this is not true. In a study published in the Bulletin of the […]

A quake in 1959 sent “time traveling” aftershocks that were felt 60 years later
Sixty years after it left a trail of death and destruction, a powerful earthquake is still making its presence felt, according to a new study. In a study published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, researchers from the University of Utah determined that the small earthquakes that rocked Maple Creek, just outside of Yellowstone volcano […]

Researchers identify CRUCIAL 10- to 15-second moment that can signal a magnitude 7 megaquake
A pair of researchers may have found a way to predict how strong an earthquake will be. Diego Melgar from the University of Oregon and Gavin Hayes from the National Earthquake Information Center of the US Geological Survey (USGS) analyzed and compared information between various databases and GPS-gathered intel. Through this, they pinpointed a specific moment during […]

How is a massive “blob” of rock causing earthquakes in Central Asia?
Far beneath the Hindu Kush mountains of Central Asia, a giant blob of continental rock is slowly dripping away from the lithosphere into the mantle below. A recent study attributed many of the deepest earthquakes in the region to the movements of this blob. The Hindu Kush runs for hundreds of miles and straddles the border of Afghanistan […]

Researchers find that the Earth’s mantle is “more dynamic” than previously believed
The medial zone of the Earth’s three-layered interior, the mantle is itself divided into upper and lower parts. Most experts believe that the lower mantle is dormant, but a recent European study found greater signs of dynamic activity in the region. The lower mantle starts 410 miles (660 km) beneath the crust of the planet. […]

Understanding the global carbon cycle: Most CO2 is bound up in Earth’s core, which is why CO2 levels rise when continents move
Mainstream media would have you believe that the fluctuations in the carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the atmosphere are completely man-made. They insist that technological advances as well as overpopulation have driven our planet to a state of crisis – one evidenced by a rapidly warming atmosphere. However, a basic understanding of the global carbon […]
