Deepest Scientific Ocean Drilling Sheds Light on Japan’s Next Great Earthquake
Scientists who drilled deeper into an undersea earthquake fault than ever before have found that the tectonic stress in Japan’s Nankai subduction zone is less than expected, according to a study from researchers at The University of Texas at Austin and University of Washington. The findings, published in the journal Geology, are a puzzle because… Continue Reading Deepest Scientific Ocean Drilling Sheds Light on Japan’s Next Great Earthquake

Mystery crater potentially caused by relative of dinosaur-killing asteroid
Originally published in The Conversation. The ocean floor is famously less explored than the surface of Mars. And when our team of scientists recently mapped the seabed, and ancient sediments beneath, we discovered what looks like an asteroid impact crater. Continue Reading Mystery crater potentially caused by relative of dinosaur-killing asteroid
