Scientists say the San Andreas and San Jacinto faults are more stressed than at any time in 1,000 years, raising questions about future California quakes.
A research group led by Satoshi Ide from the University of Tokyo has demonstrated that classic earthquake generation theory does not hold in areas where the angle at which a tectonic plate dips under ...
A team of geoscientists from the University of Toronto is shedding new light on the century-old model of plate tectonics, which suggests the plates covering the ocean floors are rigid as they move ...
New research finds the San Andreas and San Jacinto fault systems are in a “critically loaded” state, with stress levels that ...
A new study suggests the San Andreas Fault has reached stress levels not seen in nearly 1,000 years. While scientists are not ...
“If we don’t understand the underlying tectonic processes, it’s hard to predict the seismic hazard,” said co-author Amanda Thomas, professor of earth and planetary sciences at UC Davis. Three of the ...
