Scars from ancient 'megaquakes' at Cascadia subduction zone discovered in deep-sea landslides
Large subduction-zone earthquakes leave scars on the continental slope in the deep sea.
When an earthquake rips along the Cascadia Subduction Zone fault, much of the U.S. West Coast could shake violently for five minutes, and tsunami waves as tall as 100 feet could barrel toward shore.
One of the biggest crash scenes on Earth, a subduction zone is a spot where two of the planet's tectonic plates collide and one dives, or subducts, beneath the other, according to the National Oceanic ...
MELBOURNE, Dec. 12 (UPI) -- An Australian-led science team says it has developed a new global map of subduction zones that could help predict where giant earthquakes might strike. The effort, led by ...

A budding subduction zone offshore of Spain heralds the start of a new cycle that will one day pull the Atlantic Ocean seafloor into the bowels of the Earth, a new study suggests. Understanding how ...
A new analysis suggests that massive earthquakes on northern sections of the Cascadia Subduction Zone, affecting areas of the Pacific Northwest that are more heavily populated, are somewhat more ...
Des chercheurs affirment avoir identifié les zones de la croûte terrestre les plus exposées aux mégaséismes, comme ceux qui ont dévasté l'Indonésie et le Japon ces dernières années. "Nous avons ...
