A hidden ocean spring that could shape Cascadia’s future
The megathrust fault zone is like an air hockey table,’ Solomon, a seafloor geologist at the University of Washington, ...
Scientists warn that the plate beneath Gibraltar arc will begin to shift toward the Atlantic within 20 million years.
Our planet's lithosphere is broken into several tectonic plates. Their configuration is ever-shifting, as supercontinents are assembled and broken up, and oceans form, grow, and then start to close in ...
Subduction zones, where one tectonic plate dives underneath another, drive the world’s most devastating earthquakes and tsunamis. How do these danger zones come to be? A study in Geology presents ...
Just off the Pacific Northwest coast amid record-breaking heat in 2021, researchers braved oddly cold, stormy seas to study another threat to the region — earthquakes and tsunamis. The team of about ...
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – Warm fluid is shooting “like a firehose” into the Pacific Ocean off the Oregon Coast and researchers believe it’s regulating pressure on the Cascadia Subduction Zone, the ...
One of the main achievements in the Earth science is the development of plate tectonics theory in the 20 th century. It successfully explains the generation and extinction of oceanic plate from ...
A novel three-dimensional model of the fluid stored deep in Earth's crust along the Cascadia Subduction Zone provides new insight into how the accumulation and release of those fluids may influence ...
The fault that produced the earthquake lies between two pieces of hard rock sandwiching a slippery clay layer, allowing for ...
