Read previewHidden off the US Western shore, beneath the Pacific Ocean, is the Cascadia Subduction Zone. The results will help scientists assess earthquake and tsunami risk for this region, including one particularly vulnerable state: Washington. How the Cascadia Subduction Zone causes earthquakesIn the Cascadia Subduction Zone, the Juan de Fuca plate is slowly subducting under North America. The Cascadia Subduction Zone can produce even larger, more dangerous quakes. Additionally, understanding that Cascadia is broken up into segments is key to assessing earthquake hazard, Watt said.

I left Austin because it was getting too darn hot, and the political climate became unbearable. At this point in my life, it's 99.9% better for me than the United States. I moved to Canada, and I'm not looking backMy husband and I moved to British Columbia two years ago. AdvertisementI love it here — but Canada isn't perfectIt turns out Canada is a little better than the United States on climate, safety, and politics. Courtesy of Linda OfsheDespite my medical concerns, I'm happier in Canada than I was in the United States.

☆ The moon's pull is so strong it may trigger earthquakes on Earth. Scientists are still baffled by its power.

A small handful of experts claim to have evidence that our satellite produces forces that can trigger earthquakes. The moon's effect on earthquakes was hiddenScientists have long pondered whether the moon's tides could be linked to earthquakes. And it seems that in some cases, the moon did help trigger earthquakes around the world. By digging into these datasets, a few studies have suggested a link between Earth tides and earthquakes. Rather, it is when the rock is on the very brink of collapse that the moon's small tug could push it past that final tipping point.
