Understanding Earthquakes: Borah Peak, Landers Thrust, and Recent Seismic Activity

This presentation delves into the intricacies of earthquake patterns, particularly focusing on significant earthquakes including the Borah Peak and Landers thrust events. It examines the complex tectonics at play and highlights recent seismic activities illustrated with CMT solutions. Learn where active faults are located, and discover insights through the IRIS Seismon portal. This comprehensive overview aims to enhance understanding of the geological processes that lead to earthquakes and their implications for affected regions.
