(Natural News) A study published in the journal Geosphere simulated possible rupture scenarios along the Coachella Valley segment in southern San Andreas Fault. Results show that even a slight change in fault parameters, including friction and stress conditions, could lead to a wild assortment of outcomes. The rupture could also spread toward different locations along the fault line, said researchers from the University […]

(Natural News) Far beneath the Hindu Kush mountains of Central Asia, a giant blob of continental rock is slowly dripping away from the lithosphere into the mantle below.

(Natural News) A Natural News investigation into the geolocation of nuclear power facilities in California reveals that five nuclear facilities were built in close proximity to the San Andreas fault line, with some constructed right in the middle of earthquake zones that have up to a 50% chance of a severe earthquake every 30 years. […]

(Natural News) The West coast could soon be transformed by a devastating mega-earthquake — but not where you might expect. The San Andreas Fault may be the most famous fault line, but experts say that the Cascadia subduction zone now poses an even bigger threat. According to reports, the next full-margin rupture along Cascadia will […]
