Caltech researchers have introduced a new seismic ... This DAS technique turns fiber optic cables into seismometers. When an earthquake strikes, seismic waves radiate outward, some of which ...

Seismologists have always wanted better and more sensors to study earthquakes, and fiber sensing with telecom cable is just a perfect fit.” Mike Gurnis, director of the Caltech Seismological Lab ...

“California is the earthquake country, and we have a pretty good seismic network starting from more than 100 years ago now,” said Zhan, a professor of geophysics at Caltech. “We really want ...

Now a map released by the United ... which was clocked at 3.0 by USGS. The earthquake occurred at a depth of 4.6 miles and was on the San Andreas fault. CalTech researchers said the second quake ...

(KTVU) - Residents throughout California are on edge after two massive earthquakes— a magnitude ... But Lucy Jones, a seismologist at the California Institute of Technology and a former science ...

The Caltech and JPL team — who work together as part of the NASA-funded Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis project — also created a damage proxy map after a magnitude-8.1 earthquake struck ...

The US Geological Survey has rolled out a new, online, real-time earthquake prediction map for California showing the probability of earthquake shaking over the next 24-hours. The new online map shows ...

Just as earthquakes have defined much of the physical and cultural landscape of Southern California from the 1925 Santa Barbara quake to 1994’s Northridge temblor, CalTech’s famed ...

It’s impossible to predict when and where earthquakes will strike and how large they will be, Caltech Science Exchange and other seismology experts say. No scientist has ever predicted a major ...

By simulating earthquakes in a lab, Caltech engineers have provided strong experimental support for a form of earthquake propagation now thought responsible for the magnitude-9.0 earthquake that ...
