Rumbling from ocean trenches could be sign that Japan faces mega earthquake

Research output: Contribution to specialist publicationArticle

Abstract

Researchers in Japan have for the first time detected and traced shallow tremors under the ocean that could be a sign that the country is heading towards a huge earthquake. But the technique itself may one day help us predict exactly when such an event would take place, which could save thousands of lives.
