Scientists from Colorado State University and the University of São Paulo have overcome a challenge that has prevented medical ultrasound imaging from being used in intensive care and emergency room ...

The field of seismology has seen in recent times significant advances driven by more sophisticated sensing methods and big data. Equally important has been the continuous development of statistical ...

Fiber-optic cables can be used to detect earthquakes and other ground movements. The data cables can also pick up seismic signals from hammer shots, passing cars or wave movements in the ocean.

A network of simple seismic stations, hosted in volunteers’ homes, helped to rapidly evaluate and characterize the Mw7.2 Nippes earthquake in Haiti in 2021, as well as its subsequent aftershocks. The ...

Geophysics is the application of the methods and techniques of physics in the study of the Earth. It differs from Geology in that a geologist studies rocks and structures, which can be seen, while a ...

To predict when earthquakes are likely to occur, seismologists often use statistics to monitor how clusters of seismic activity evolve over time. However, this approach often fails to anticipate the ...

Earlier this month, Assistant Professor in the Nevada Seismological Laboratory Daniel Trugman was named the recipient of the 2023 Charles F. Richter Early Career Award. The award is named for Charles ...

The earthquake that hit Taiwan's east on Wednesday morning was "the strongest in 25 years", said the director of Taipei's Seismology Centre.

The Berkeley Seismology Lab has been expanding the Northern California seismic network with more than 100 new and upgraded stations. Within the past five years, the Berkeley Digital Seismic Network ...

In this video, Dr. Patricia Persaud from Louisiana State University presents: Urban Seismology in Megacities: the Los Angeles BASIN Experiment. The greater Los Angeles area is a megacity by the United ...
