The Mission Creek and Banning faults are two principal strands of the San Andreas fault zone in the northern Coachella Valley of southern California. The two faults merge at depth to form one fault ...
Understanding the Alpine Fault, which forms the Australian-Pacific plate boundary on the South Island, will help lifeline and emergency management organisations be better prepared for any future large ...
Researchers studied quartz from the San Andreas Fault at the microscopic scale, the scale at which earthquake-triggering stresses originate. The results could one day lead to a better understanding of ...
The geometric structure of rocks where earthquakes occur could play a key role in determining their location and strength, researchers have found. A study, carried out by geologists at Brown ...
CHEYENNE, Wyo. — Scientists have completed the most detailed map yet of the geologic fault at the foot of the Teton Range, one of the most visually striking and potentially dangerous seismic areas in ...
In ‘The Great Quake,’ how Alaska’s Good Friday Earthquake overhauled our understanding of the planet
The 1964 Good Friday Earthquake, the strongest ever recorded in North America, remains a pivotal event in Alaska's history, but its impact on the science of geology was even more significant. Our ...
Ground fissures and tectonic faults represent critical structural features within sedimentary basins, where the interplay of regional stress fields, depositional environments and, at times, human ...
