A new kind of earthquake has been detected in western Canada, one that shakes the ground slower and longer than typical ...

When the island of Santorini was rattled by thousands of small earthquakes earlier this year, many people were left mystified ...

Its murmurs tend not to be signs of volcanic unrest but rather the signature of avalanches large enough to register on nearby ...

In a groundbreaking studypublished in Seismological Research Letters, Australian National University (ANU) scientists have found that powerful winter storms in the North Atlantic Ocean send seismic ...

The impact hurled up a mega-tsunami wave, reaching about 650 feet high. The surge barreled down the two-mile corridor, bounced off the headland, and tore back again, wrecking roughly $200,000 in ...

They have demonstrated why earthquake waves change abruptly at a depth of 2,700 kilometres at the so-called D'' layer. The reason for this is a type of solid rock that nevertheless flows. This mineral ...

The researchers assumed that this change explained the strange acceleration of the seismic waves. But that was not the full story. In 2007, Murakami and colleagues found new evidence that the phase ...

Natural earthquakes are caused by crustal plate movements and other factors. Their seismic wave spectra are wide, with well-developed surface waves. The hypocenters are deep, and the seismic source ...

Idaho state geologist Claudio Berti while speaking to the Daily Mail said that the recent wave of seismic activity as ‘unusual’ and concerning, noting that the future behavior of the fault remains ...

Karachi experiences three more earthquakes amid ongoing seismic activity. Latest activity has taken total number of tremors felt in Karachi since June 1 to 26, says seismological centre ...

In September 2023, a bizarre global seismic signal was observed which appeared every 90 seconds over nine days—and was then repeated a month later. Almost a year later, two scientific studies ...

The breakthrough came when researchers incorporated multiple wave sources along the 150-km fault line. “Earthquakes don’t rupture at one spot but propagate across faults,” explained lead author Dr.
