New Algorithm Uses Fiber Optic Cables to Improve Earthquake Detection Globally
Researchers have developed an algorithm that converts fiber optic cables into seismic sensors, improving earthquake detection and early warning systems. The method integrates fiber optic and traditional seismometer data, overcoming challenges in earthquake monitoring. The technology could also help detect seismic activity in volcanoes and glaciers....

Scientists Predict Under Sea Volcano Eruption Near Oregon Coast in 2025
Axial Seamount, an undersea volcano located off the coast of Oregon, is showing signs of an impending eruption, with scientists predicting it could occur as early as 2025. The volcano’s surface has been swelling, and seismic activity is increasing, both of which mirror patterns seen before previous eruptions. Researchers have been closely monitor...

New Device to Provide Early-Warning System for Earthquakes, Tsunamis
The Brinco - a small, round, flat, metallic cylinder - is a networked seismic warning and monitoring system with an accompanying mobile app.

Earthquake Warnings of Minutes, Not Hours, are Possible, But Pricey
Nepal's record of earthquakes dates to at least the 13th century, with significant temblors striking every 75 years or so. And through all that time, in Nepal as in most seismically active areas, there has been one constant: people in the path of destruction have had no idea when the shaking would start.

7,800 people affected by quake in China's Xinjiang
A 7.3-magnitude earthquake which struck northwest China's remote and sparsely-populated Xinjiang region yesterday has affected over 7,800 people as seismologists warned that the powerful tremble signals a seismically active period for the Earth.
