The New Jersey earthquake of 2024 might have felt bigger than ones of the same magnitude on a Richter scale or intensity in California. That's because earthquakes in the eastern US go farther and hit harder than their western...

Hank talks about why it is so difficult for scientists to predict earthquakes in the short term.

We use seismographs to record the time, location and magnitude of earthquakes as they happen. But in the last three decades, a new field of study has emerged that is learning to track these details about earthquakes of old using the...

You might have heard about animals behaving oddly right before an earthquake hits. But are these reports more than just anecdotes?

Hank talks about why it is so difficult for scientists to predict earthquakes in the short term.

Dive into the dynamics of earthquakes, from the initial tremors to the science behind their measurement. Learn how seismologists use seismographs to detect seismic waves and locate epicenters, aiding in earthquake preparedness and the...

Dr. Forrester demystifies earthquakes. She explains how they are created.

Dr. Forrester explains how tectonic plates are at the heart of earthquakes and volcanoes.

In this video, the concept of earthquakes is explained in a simple and detailed manner. The causes, types of waves, and the magnitude of earthquakes are discussed, along with a simulator to demonstrate the effects of different magnitudes...

The video discusses the 1964 Alaska earthquake, one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded in North America. The video explains the concept of the earthquake epicenter and focus, and notes that earthquakes can occur under the ocean....

This video provides an informative overview of earthquakes, explaining the causes, effects, and potential dangers associated with these natural disasters. It covers important concepts such as tectonic plates, seismic waves, magnitude...

This video provides an overview of earthquakes, including their causes, measurement, and notable earthquakes in history. It also discusses the importance of earthquake preparedness and provides tips on how to create an emergency plan and...

This live-action video program is about earthquakes. The program is designed to reinforce and support a student's comprehension and retention of the term through use of video footage, photographs, diagrams and colorful, animated graphics...
