Groundbreaking: ‘Controlled’ quakes triggered under Swiss Alps
4+ mon, 1+ day ago (843+ words) Researchers have made the ground shake in southern Switzerland, triggering thousands of tiny earthquakes in a monitored setting, as they seek to discover seismicity insights that could reduce risks. “It was a success!” said Domenico Giardini, one of the lead…...
Why scientists triggered 8,000 earthquakes below Swiss Alps
4+ mon, 1+ day ago (22+ words) Scientists triggered 8,000 small earthquakes in Switzerland’s BedrettoLab to study how seismic pressure builds and how deep earthquakes begin underground....
'Impossible' mantle earthquakes actually occur all over the world, study finds
6+ mon, 3+ week ago (379+ words) Researchers were once unsure whether mantle earthquakes existed. Now they have a global map of this mysterious phenomenon. Earthquakes that jiggle Earth's middle layer may be more widespread than scientists thought. "We believe this firmly demonstrates that there are earthquakes…...

How Human-Induced Seismicity Triggers 'Impossible' Earthquakes in Stable Continental Regions
4+ mon, 3+ week ago (747+ words) Earthquakes rattling stable continental regions catch experts off guard because these areas sit far from shifting tectonic plates. Healed faults combined with human-induced seismicity explain these puzzling shakes, as recent Utrecht University research reveals. Traditional seismic maps overlook such risks…...
