A massive magnitude 8.8 megathrust earthquake struck off the coast of Kamchatka, Russia, resulting from the subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the Okhotsk Plate along the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench. As the largest earthquake globally in 2025, its shallow depth generated tsunami waves, prompting warnings across the Pacific, including Russia, Japan, and Hawaii.| Geology In

Featured Research New AI tool could help predict earthquakes before they happen Scientists trained a neural network with a model of subduction zones, areas where tectonic plates are moving beneath each other and where the largest earthquakes happen, known as megathrust earthquakes. The research team used an ‘explainable AI’ which means the AI program runs […]| AGU Newsroom
Scientists for the first time have detected a slow slip earthquake in motion during the act of releasing tectonic pressure on a major fault zone at the bottom of the ocean. The slow earthquake was recorded spreading along the tsunami-generating portion of the fault off the coast of Japan, behaving like a tectonic shock absorber.… Continue Reading Scientists Capture Slow-Motion Earthquake in Action| UT Institute for Geophysics
