As oceans waves rise and fall, they apply forces to the sea floor below and generate seismic waves. These seismic waves are so powerful and widespread that they show up as a steady thrum on ...

Yes, Hurricane Melissa affected seismic activity, but it did not cause a crack in the seafloor that will lead to a major ...

Seismic waves are part of that environment, so they're naturally adapted to them. If the artificial wave forms are identical to seismic waves in amplitude and frequency (since both vary depending on ...

A satellite deployed to measure ocean surface heights was up to the challenge when a massive earthquake off the Kamchatka Peninsula triggered a Pacific-wide tsunami in late July.

Scientists have uncovered massive, dense rock structures deep beneath the western Pacific, challenging long-held theories ...

Robots called "Mermaids" now floating in the oceans are helping to create images of the Earth's interior. Each robot is known as a Mobile Earthquake Recorder in Marine Areas by Independent Divers, or ...

Supercomputer simulations of planetary-scale interactions show how ocean storms and the structure of Earth's upper layers together generate much of the world's seismic waves. Decoding the faint but ...

Kilauea showed early underground shifts before the 2018 eruption. New monitoring methods revealed pressure changes and ...
