The earliest scientists first observed the waves that earthquakes produce before they could accurately describe the nature of earthquakes or their fundamental causes, as discussed in Lessons 1–5.

Full Waveform Inversion Technology is transforming seismic imaging in oil and gas with high-res subsurface models, AI ...

Scientists may have figured out the cause of some bizarre seismic waves echoing around the Earth's insides which have puzzled them for decades. These mysterious waves, known as PKP precursors, arrive ...

Finite difference methods have become a cornerstone in the simulation of seismic wave propagation, providing a robust numerical framework to approximate the differential equations that govern seismic ...

Geophysics has shown that precise measurements and a little modeling can perform wonders, like showing us the detailed structure of the Earth’s interior despite the fact that it is inaccessibly buried ...

When a 7.9-magnitude earthquake struck central China's Sichuan province in 2008, seismic waves rippled through the region, toppling apartment houses in the city of Chengdu and swaying office buildings ...

How can we determine how empty or full the soil reservoir is in areas that are difficult to access? Researchers have now demonstrated an elegant method to track groundwater dynamics in high mountains: ...

Mars’ heart is about the size of our moon, and almost twice as dense. Or so suggest the first observed rumblings from a Marsquake and meteorite impact to cross the Red Planet’s heart, researchers ...

Innovative motion sensor technologies improve earthquake detection, offering timely warnings and enhancing safety for ...

Researcher have uncovered a new geophysical phenomenon where a hurricane or other strong storm can spark seismic events in the nearby ocean as strong as a 3.5 magnitude earthquake. A Florida State ...
