High population density, a potential for large earthquakes, and basins that amplify seismic waves put downtown Los Angeles at risk

Exposing Los Angeles’s Shaky Geologic Underbelly

by R. W. Clayton, P. Persaud, M. Denolle and J. Polet 10 October 20193 November 2021

Current calculations might underestimate the susceptibility of Los Angeles to earthquake shaking, so researchers and volunteers are deploying seismic networks near the city to remedy a data shortage.

The magma system underneath Lipari is connected to a fault system formed by tectonic activity rather than to volcanoes.

Seismic Sensors Probe Lipari’s Underground Plumbing

by F. Di Luccio, P. Persaud, L. Cucci, A. Esposito, G. Ventura and R. W. Clayton 15 July 201911 May 2022

An international team of scientists installed a novel, dense network of 48 seismic sensors on the island of Lipari to investigate the active magma system underground.
