Japan has completed the world’s most advanced undersea earthquake and tsunami detection system—3,500+ miles of fiber-optic ...

The “megathrust” earthquake’s undersea magnitude was 9.0, recorded as one of the worst in Japan’s history. It began on the Pacific seabed 45 miles away from the eastern coast of Japan, as reported by ...

Japan has developed an undersea warning system that can detect earthquakes 20 seconds before they reach land, significantly ...

Japan’s new earthquake-detection network lengthens warning times, and researchers in Wales have harnessed nuclear blast ...

Early detection of earthquakes could be vastly improved by tapping into the world's internet network with a groundbreaking new algorithm, researchers say. Fiber optic cables used for cable ...

When an earthquake hits, even a few seconds advance notice can be precious. Because digital communications can outrun seismic waves, scientists at the Berkeley Seismological Laboratory have ...

In California, Android's earthquake detection will be a collaboration between Google and the same coalition that handles ShakeAlert, the back-end system that the MyShake client surfaces to users.

Despite advances in technology, our ability to predict natural disasters is in need of improvement. Of course, accuracy is still an issue, but even in the case of precise forecasts, we can barely ...

A network detection algorithm is activated by incoming data from multiple phones in the same area, to "declare" an earthquake, identify its location and estimate its magnitude, Allen said.
