Something is shifting beneath our feet, and the scientific community is increasingly vocal about it. Across North America and ...

Stress accumulating in the southern San Andreas fault. (Burkhard et. al., J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth, 2026) It's called ...

Combining the requirements for refined modeling and dynamic update of fault slope geological models in open-pit coal mines, we systematically elaborated on the elements and rules of slope 3D ...

A new study of California's earthquakes say that building pressure underneath two major fault lines converging at Cajon Pass ...

Earthquake researchers believed for decades that rock friction within fault lines follows a simple relationship with temperature. However, a new study published by the Proceedings of the National ...

It has been over 100 years since a major tectonic rupture has affected the greater Los Angeles area, which means stress on ...

Researchers have developed a laboratory earthquake model that connects the microscopic real contact area between fault surfaces to the possibility of earthquake occurrences. Published in the ...

S. population is "somewhat likely" to experience a damaging earthquake in the coming decades, according to recently published seismic hazard models. Let's be real, most Americans think earthquakes ...

Accurate, fast, and interpretable fault identification on electrical transmission lines is essential for maintaining power system stability and reducing outage durations. In this study, we propose a ...

This has scientists quaking in their boots. Researchers have found that one of the US's most dangerous fault lines is overdue for an earthquake, potentially threatening millions of people across ...
