San Francisco has assigned a seismic hazard score to hundreds of city-owned buildings. Some key ones, including a jury duty ...

A 2.3 magnitude earthquake shook near Madison Thursday afternoon, marking the third quake this week in the area.

While a 9.0 magnitude earthquake and the tsunamis that follow would devastate parts of the region, it’s the lasting change to the land level itself the scientists considered in their work.

Impact: The 1933 earthquake was Southern California’s deadliest in the modern record, leaving nearly 120 dead and causing $40 ...

The study also looked at the projected floodplain for the year 2100 based on estimates of sea level change. In that scenario, an earthquake causing low subsidence would put an additional 6,880 ...

When an earthquake rips along the Cascadia Subduction Zone fault, much of the U.S. West Coast could shake violently for five minutes, and tsunami waves as tall as 100 feet could barrel toward shore.

The study also looked at the projected floodplain for the year 2100 based on estimates of sea level change. In that scenario, an earthquake causing low subsidence would put an additional 6,880 ...

If the earthquake happens in 75 years, when climate change has caused sea level to rise much further than it has today, the size of the floodplain could triple.

The experts stressed that the fault line has a 15% chance of creating an earthquake with a magnitude 8.0 or greater within the next 50 years, which could cause coastal land to sink up to 6½ feet.
