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 ...

A rare satellite view captured a major Pacific tsunami in unprecedented detail, revealing wave behaviors scientists did not expect. A satellite designed to track the height of the ocean’s surface ...

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 ...

The NASA and CNES jointly operated SWOT satellite recorded the massive July 29, 2025 Kuril-Kamchatka Pacific tsunami in high ...

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 ...

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 ...

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

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 ...
