A new look at the Juan de Fuca tectonic plate beneath the coast of northern Oregon suggests this subducting slab is shallower ...
New research published recently in the journal Science Advances considers the process of tectonic plate subduction. The study is a collaboration between scientists at the Scripps Institution of ...
Our planet's lithosphere is broken into several tectonic plates. Their configuration is ever-shifting, as supercontinents are assembled and broken up, and oceans form, grow, and then start to close in ...
A new UW study on the Cascadia Subduction Zone was released in February 2026. The study indicated that a difference between ...
A swarm of offshore earthquakes near the Pacific Northwest poses no threat to land, says Harold Tobin of the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network.
A new study has found that most rare earth deposits – sources of metals essential for electronics and clean energy ...
How is plate subduction factory operated during continental collision? How do physical mixing and chemical reaction proceed at colliding continental margins of different depths? How is continental ...
The biological carbon pump moves carbon from near the ocean's surface to deeper regions, maintaining the upper ocean's ...
It’s the 323rd anniversary of the last Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake. We spend a fair amount of time thinking about the ‘Big One’ (and the ‘Really Big One’) in the Pacific Northwest. Today is ...
