“For a fault that has had so much attention, there’s so much we still don’t know.” Read on to learn what scientists are still uncovering about the Seattle fault and the risks it poses to the Pacific Northwest. eos.org/articles/on-...

Wow. It’s the 120th anniversary of the Great San Francisco Earthquake and the Chronicle has a pretty good write-up on Northern San Andreas earthquake mean recurrence intervals. www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/e...

In the world of Pacific Northwest seismology, “the big one” on Cascadia gets a lot of attention. But the Seattle fault, which runs under the fault’s namesake city, poses a big risk—and not just its biggest quakes either. eos.org/articles/on-...
