Those seismic waves are like ripples on a pond, the USGS said. The earthquake will be strongest at its epicenter, the point on the surface directly above where the quake started, and the effects ...

These mysterious waves, known as PKP precursors, arrive just before a type of seismic wave known as PKP waves, which travel through the Earth during an earthquake.

Two Australian scientists argue in a new paper that within the Earth’s core, based on measurements of waves reverberating along the Earth’s diameter, is an innermost inner core, about 800 ...

Scientists recorded a seismic event so strange that they named it a USO—unidentified seismic object. It reverberated around the world for a staggering 9 days.

It is hard to measure the stress in-situ, while changes in seismic wave speed can reflect changes in the zone. ... National Science Review (2025). DOI: 10.1093/nsr/nwaf023.
