SUMMARY:Your Imperial Taster | Earth Science and Engineering | Silent earth
 quakes: how do we study them?
DESCRIPTION:Subduction zones are located where one of the Earth’s tectoni
 c plates slides beneath another – the boundary between the tectonic plat
 es is called the plate boundary fault. These plate boundary faults are cap
 able of generating the largest earthquakes and tsunamis on Earth\, such as
  the 2011 magnitude 9.0 earthquake in Japan. In the last two decades a com
 pletely new type of seismic phenomenon has been discovered at subduction z
 ones: silent earthquakes or slow slip events. These ‘silent’ earthquak
 es happen over several weeks or even months and there can be no ground-sha
 king at all. In this lecture we discuss why this new discovery has turned 
 the field of seismology upside down and how we study these strange earthqu
 akes.\n\nSuitable for UK\, EU and international students who are intereste
 d in learning more about Earth Science and Engineering.\n\n\n
