An updated USGS National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) using the latest data collection technologies indicates that nearly 75 percent of the U.S. could experience a damaging earthquake, according to the ...

"We are a long way off from predicting natural earthquakes, but understanding the physics of labquakes and how they evolve allows us to better understand the mechanics of real earthquakes," said ...

Scientists used supercomputer simulation to reveal the underlying mechanism by which the irregular fault geometry, characterized by multisegments, controlled the variation of the fault slip and ...

A team at Los Alamos National Laboratory used machine learning — an application of artificial intelligence — to detect the hidden signals that precede an earthquake. The findings at the Kīlauea ...

Here in Florida, we get hurricanes but at least we can see them coming. We're not used to earthquakes. Which is why the 4.0 magnitude quake that rattled parts of Florida's Space Coast Wednesday night ...
