Magnitude 6.0 earthquake recorded off Oregon

The earthquake occurred at a depth of 6.2 miles and had an estimated intensity of VI on the modified Mercalli intensity scale.

NASA uses satellite technology to better understand earthquakes

Scientists are using the cutting-edge satellite technology from the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NASIR) to rethink how we understand earthquakes.

Here's how AI helped researchers discover thousands of mini earthquakes beneath Yellowstone

Tens of thousands of hidden earthquakes were recently discovered beneath the Yellowstone volcano by a group of international scientists, revealing ways to better inform the public of potential risks.

Parkfield, San Andreas, and the quest for a 'crystal ball' for predicting earthquakes before they happen

A small town in California was hit by earthquakes once every 22 years for over a century, setting the stage for a major seismic experiment in the 1980s and 90s. But the quake ended up being 11 years late.

Rocks and rolls: The computational infrastructure of earthquakes and physics of planetary science

Sometimes to truly study something up close, you have to take a step back. That's what Andrea Donnellan does. An expert in Earth sciences and seismology, she gets much of her data from a bird's-eye view,

Earthquakes Deep Below Antarctic Waters Seem to Have Surprising Effects on Life at the Surface

Shaking caused by quakes may cause ocean floor vents to release more nutrients, triggering blooms in plant-like organisms called phytoplankton in the Southern Ocean

Hundreds of Iceberg Earthquakes Rattle Antarctica’s Doomsday Glacier

Instead, the most prolific period of glacial earthquakes at Thwaites, between 2018 and 2020, coincides with a period of accelerated flow of the glacier’s ice tongue towards the sea. The ice-tongue speed-up period was independently confirmed by satellite observations.

The strange link between winter earthquakes and massive summer algae blooms the size of California

During the Antarctic winter, sea ice spreads and sunlight fades, leaving little visible change at the ocean surface. Deep below, however, earthquakes shake underwater ridges and stir mineral-rich fluids from the seafloor.
