Possible relationship between strike–slip motion and jet activity at Enceladus. Lateral extension along transtensional "pull-apart zones" allows water to rise and feed material to cryovolcanic jets.
A rare earthquake in Myanmar revealed how a long, mature fault can transmit energy directly to the surface. The discovery may change how scientists evaluate the danger posed by major faults around the ...

Most misread fault pulls apart—millions now at higher quake risk
For decades, scientists viewed the Tuz Gölü Fault in central Turkey as a straightforward sideways slider, with GPS data ...
New mechanical modeling of a network of active strike-slip faults in California's Imperial Valley suggests the faults are continuously linked, from the southern San Andreas Fault through the Imperial ...
A rare, ultra-long earthquake in Myanmar revealed that mature faults can deliver their full force directly to the surface.
Some slow-moving faults may help protect some regions of Italy and other parts of the world against destructive earthquakes, suggests new research from The University of Arizona in Tucson. Until now, ...
Dramatic CCTV video of fault slip during a recent large earthquake in Myanmar thrilled both scientists and casual observers when it was posted to YouTube. But it was on his fifth or sixth viewing, ...

Deep in Turkey, a Fault Is Ripping Open the Ground—Not Sliding—And It Flips Decades of Science on Its Head
In central Turkey, beneath the arid plains surrounding Lake Tuz, a silent geological shift is underway. A fault zone once thought to mirror the lateral motion of neighboring systems is instead tearing ...
On March 28, a devastating magnitude 7.7 earthquake shook Myanmar. By chance, one camera caught a rare video, capturing the moment when the ground cracked and shifted in opposite directions. CCTV ...
