Credit: NOAA Researchers found a unique seismic signal just before the January 2022 eruption of the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano, potentially offering early warnings for oceanic eruptions. By ...

Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger and SI's Pat Forde react to the recent wave of head coach firings for major Group of Five programs ...

Still, earthquakes are not uncommon in Alabama. Since 1886, more than 400 earthquakes have been recorded in the state.

The solid Earth's medium is heterogeneous over a wide range of scales. Seismological observations, including envelope broadening with increasing distance from an earthquake source and the excitation ...

New trigger proposed for record-smashing 2022 Tonga eruption Previously unstudied data from a seismic wave, detected 750 kilometers from the seamount, may bolster tsunami early-warning systems ...

Independent MP Monique Ryan's private members bill to abolish controversial seismic blasting permits was tabled today, but ...

Caltech researchers have developed a new method to study the earth's structure deep beneath the surface, at the boundary between Earth's brittle crust ...

Abstract: This study introduces a distributional finite-difference method (DFDM) for modelling the propagation of elastic waves in heterogeneous media in the time domain. DFDM decomposes the modelling ...

This course gives a basis for understanding how elastic waves, generated by earthquakes or controlled sources, propagate through the Earth and thus provide information about its interior. Students ...
