When the 8.2 magnitude Chignik earthquake hit off the coast of Alaska in 2021, it was a big warning signal.The largest ...

Scientists at Stanford have unveiled the first-ever global map of rare earthquakes that rumble deep within Earth’s mantle rather than its crust. Long debated and notoriously difficult to confirm, ...

The Moon is slowly shrinking as its interior cools, and that contraction is generating faults and seismic activity in the ...

Solar physicists and seismologists are testing a provocative idea: that violent outbursts from the Sun could be linked to the timing of some large earthquakes. New statistical work reports ...

Some large earthquakes may flip direction and “boomerang” back, striking the same area twice and reshaping damage patterns.

In a world-first use of medical imaging technology, scientists have revealed the earthquake-generating potential of faults in ...

A mysterious gravity dip beneath Antarctica is growing stronger, shaped by deep Earth forces over millions of years.

An earthquake typically sets off ruptures that ripple out from its underground origins. But on rare occasions, seismologists ...

The simulations showed that the gravity hole was initially much less pronounced. Between roughly 50 million and 30 million years ago, however, it intensified significantly. This period coincides with ...

A new study led by the University of Florida has revealed that one of the planet’s most significant "gravity holes" sits directly beneath Antarctica.

At a event in Washington D.C., A U.S. official said a remote earthquake in 2020 was caused by a Chinese nuclear test.

A mathematical trick speeds up seismic calculations for earthquake simulations and could revolutionize earthquake preparedness.
