The Shallow Underwater Buoy for Geodesy (SUBGEO) system is a research partnership between the USF School of Geosciences, the College of Marine Science, and international collaborators.
A subduction zone is created where two plates converge, with one sinking into the mantle. Dynamics along the plate interface create earthquakes, magma generated above the sinking slab leads to ...
Pretty much anything beyond our Solar System must be measured using advanced techniques ... Using this method, scientists can develop models of the Earth’s interior that show where submerged plates ...
Megathrust earthquakes occur when stress at subduction zones is released, causing significant plate slippage. These events disrupt long-term tectonic changes, complicating modeling efforts.
The Cascadia Region Earthquake Science Center (CRESCENT), a research project focused on the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ), was established in 2023 following a $15 million grant from the National Scie ...
