Can Climate Affect Earthquakes, Or Are the Connections Shaky?
With the advent of seismology — the study of earthquakes — we now know that most quakes are caused by tectonic processes — forces within the solid Earth that drive changes in the structure of Earth’s crust, primarily the rupture of underground rock masses along faults (linear zones of weakness).
NASA Targets Coastal Ecosystems with New Space Sensor
