The Earth's crust may have something in common with a lot of people: It tends to be lazy, at least when it comes to moving along certain types of seismic faults, new research says. Using a special ...

Scientists have built a lab model that visually tracks how microscopic contact points between fault surfaces evolve during earthquake cycles, revealing the hidden mechanics behind both the slow ...

A mathematical trick speeds up seismic calculations for earthquake simulations and could revolutionize earthquake preparedness.

ERN Natural Risk Assessment, in conjunction with Risk, Engineering and Development (RED), recently launched a pan-European earthquake risk model on the Nasdaq Risk Modelling for Catastrophes service ...
