Quickly plot the rough location of the 2025 Mw8.8 Kamchatka earthquake (USGS hypocenter) on Figure 1 in Pinegina et al. (2018). I wonder if the 2025 event re-rupture the northern rupture of the 1952 Mw9.0 event? Also, did the 2025 event rupture across the "segment boundary" at ~N53?

@seislologist.bsky.social looks like you might need to update the shirt after todays event!!!!

Sorry Tim.
USGS research has uncovered a 700-year sequence of major earthquakes in the eastern Aleutian Islands through tsunami evidence and modeling. This work enhances our understanding of seismic hazards in the region.

Cascadia subduction zone earthquake could be even worse than feared.
A once-every-500-years earthquake in the Pacific Northwest could shake for 5 minutes and cause 100-foot tsunami waves. That would be just the start of the horrors.

Bummed on the overall lack of surface rupture pics from the recent earthquake in my feeds!!!!
Our hearts are with Myanmar today. Also filled with tremendous sorrow and shame for our country that USAID isn't there to help.
I get there Tuesday. Save me an XL if you remember!!!

Awesome shirt. Heres our 1994 Cascadia one from Humboldt

I like the coastal boundary where it is because its like the southernmost redwoods.
I draw the line where Dodgers is no longer on the radio. Usually Bridgeport.
Drove around anyway!!!
9 km
Magical INSAR led us to rupture from the M5.8 Parker Butte Nevada earthquake. 1.5 km of surface rupture, right lateral, max offsets 2-5 cm, on NNW plane. Conjugate to NE trending aftershocks.
Loving the background music. Cool grooves for fault hunting
I've partied with all those partiers. At a party and not at a party!
Always down for a fault party!
And rollin in the field with @keepitrheol.bsky.social makes an epic ucsc alumni team. Props to UNR grad students Dom Vlaha and Nicole Wagoner as well.
