Earthquake Report: M 8.2 near Perryville, Alaska - Jay Patton online
A few days ago, I was passed out on my couch (sleep apnea) and for some reason I awoke and noticed that I had gotten a CSEM notification of a large earthquake offshore of Alaska. Well, after looking into that, I sent my boss, Rick, a text message: "8.2." https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us6000f02w/executive Rick Wilson runs the tsunami

Earthquake Report: Halmahera, Indonesia - Jay Patton online
Well, yesterday I was preparing some updates to the Ridgecrest Earthquake following my field work with my colleagues at the California Geological Survey (where I work) and the U.S. Geological Survey. We spent the week documenting surface ruptures associated with the M 6.4 and M 7.1 Ridgecrest Earthquake Sequence. (it is currently named the Searles

Earthquake Report: M 5.7 & 6.2 Mendocino triple junction - Jay Patton online
I was returning from New Orleans where I was attending the American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting. There was a short layover in Denver and I had a short time to find some food, which is challenging with my dietary restrictions. I cannot recall precisely, but I got some notification from my CGS crew about a

What a day. I started by waking up about 5:43 AM (about, heheh), which was 17 minutes before my alarm was set. I had a job interview at 8:30. I went to the interview for a position working on tsunami geology. During the interview, everyone started getting phone calls and emails, there was an earthquake

Earthquake Report M 7.0 Solomon Isles - Jay Patton online
The past couple of weeks have been busy from an earthquake perspective. There have been four M7 events. I am writing this report a few days late. But, better late than never! There was a magnitude M 7.0 earthquake offshore of the Solomon Islands. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000irfb/executive The Solomon Islands owe their existence to the plate boundary

Earthquake Report: M 6.1 Turkey - Jay Patton online
There was a damaging earthquake in Turkey yesterday, a magnitude M 6.1. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000irp8/executive The seismic hazards of this region of the Earth is dominated by a plate boundary fault, the North Anatolia fault (NAF). The NAF is a right-lateral strike-slip earthquake fault that has a slip rate of about 24 mm/yr. This fault is similar

Earthquake Report: East Anatolia fault zone - Jay Patton online
This M 6.7 earthquake was the result of slip probably along a left-lateral strike-slip fault associated with the East Anatolia fault zone (EAF). The event was shallow and produced strong ground shaking in the region. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us60007ewc/executive As I write this, there have been about 5 building collapses and 22 deaths. The high number of deaths
