Seismic velocity changes provide a window into the dynamic behaviour of the Earth’s crust and constitute a vital parameter in earthquake monitoring. Recent advances have refined methods for detecting ...

In May 1997, a large earthquake shook the Kermadec Islands region in the South Pacific Ocean. A little over 20 years later, in September 2018, a second big earthquake hit the same location, its waves ...

Seismic waves from one of the most powerful earthquakes on record along the east coast of Russia rippled all the way down to Florida. A tsunami thousands of miles away was triggered by the massive ...

Researchers have mathematically elucidated how the presence of crystals and gas bubbles in magma affects the propagation of seismic P-waves. A novel equation was derived to describe the travel of ...
