DALLAS (SMU) - Scientists from SMU, The University of Texas at Austin and Stanford University found that the majority of faults underlying the Fort Worth Basin are as sensitive to forces that could ...

The country was hit hard by a pair of quakes that happened in quick succession and were likely driven by stress being transferred from one part of the fault that runs through the country to another.

A fault slicing across Turkey has long been a textbook example of how tectonic plates grind past one another, yet the headline promise that it is “overturning decades of geology” cannot be verified ...

Researchers unveiled a physical model that yields an unprecedented, high-resolution look at the slip rates of faults, which determine the likelihood of earthquakes. In a new paper recently published ...
