(PhysOrg.com) -- Using a technique normally used for detecting weak tremor, scientists at the Georgia Institute of Technology discovered that the 2004 magnitude 6 earthquake along the Parkfield section of the San Andreas fault exhibited almost 11 times more aftershocks than previously thought. The research appears online in Nature Geoscience and will appear in print in a forthcoming edition. http://www.physorg.com/news178201188.html Space & Earth Mon, 23 Nov 2009 12:50:07 EST news178201188 Using sophisticated seismometers and GPS devices, scientists have been able to track minute movements along two massive tectonic plates colliding 25 miles or so underneath Washington state's Puget Sound basin. Their early findings suggest that a mega-earthquake could strike closer to the Seattle-Tacoma area, home to some 3.6 million people, than was thought earlier. http://www.physorg.com/news169653448.html Space & Earth Sun, 16 Aug 2009 15:30:03 EST news169653448 (PhysOrg.com) -- Increases in mysterious underground tremors observed in several active earthquake fault zones around the world could signal a build-up of stress at locked segments of the faults and presumably an increased likelihood of a major quake, according to a new University of California, Berkeley, study. http://www.physorg.com/news166369901.html Space & Earth Thu, 09 Jul 2009 15:30:01 EST news166369901 Scientists have detected 10,000 aftershocks since last week's earthquake in Italy of which around 1,000 could be felt, a top expert said on Monday, warning that the tremors will probably get stronger. http://www.physorg.com/news158851403.html Space & Earth Mon, 13 Apr 2009 14:23:46 EST news158851403 (AP) -- Alaska's Mount Redoubt has simmered down after spreading a coating of gritty volcanic ash over scores of communities that include the state's largest city of Anchorage. http://www.physorg.com/news157559927.html Space & Earth Sun, 29 Mar 2009 15:39:13 EST news157559927 (AP) -- Alaska's Mount Redoubt has erupted again, spewing an ash cloud 50,000 feet up into the air. http://www.physorg.com/news157481790.html Space & Earth Sat, 28 Mar 2009 17:56:51 EST news157481790 Patients with advanced Parkinson disease (PD) who received deep brain stimulation treatment had more improvement in movement skills and quality of life after six months than patients who received other medical therapy, but also had a higher risk of a serious adverse events, according to a study in the January 7 issue of JAMA. http://www.physorg.com/news150483770.html Medicine & Health Tue, 06 Jan 2009 17:02:50 EST news150483770 University of British Columbia researchers are offering the first compelling evidence to explain regular tremors under Vancouver Island. http://www.physorg.com/news149951583.html Space & Earth Wed, 31 Dec 2008 13:13:03 EST news149951583
