The developer is already making changes but that may not be enough to secure approval from the neighbors or city government.

"San Andreas Fault" explores the geological features and movements of the San Andreas Fault in California. It details how urbanization has obscured the fault's trace, yet it remains visible ...

Subduction zones, where one tectonic plate dives underneath another, drive the world's most devastating earthquakes and tsunamis. How do these danger zones come to be? A study in Geology presents ...

A 3.3-magnitude earthquake hit Northern California Monday evening near Los Banos, about 30 miles from San Jose. No damage ...

A minor, 3.3-magnitude earthquake struck in Northern California on Monday, according to the United States Geological Survey.

Two slow-motion earthquakes took several weeks to travel 20 miles along the fault. Each happened in places where geologic ...

The data has also revealed fault scarps near Gardiner, in Montana, that are likely linked to another fault system, East Gallatin-Reese Creek, which extends into Yellowstone National Park.

Magnetic data suggest Seattle's fault line formed 55 million years ago, when the southern half of a subducting chain of volcanic islands piled onto the continent and tore apart from the northern half.

A geological fault line is a long crack in the Earth’s surface. Earthquakes typically occur along fault lines. The U.S. Geological Survey works with hundreds of scientists and engineers to ...

The geology team identified it as a strike-slip fault with movement similar to the San Andreas fault and capable of producing a M8 earthquake. An ingenious engineering solution was developed.
