Tectonic wobbles and muddy deposits: The seismic clues leading up to 3/11

Mar 8, 2021 The blue arrows on the map splay out like uncooked spaghetti tossed into a pot as geophysicist Jonathan Bedford presses play. Ten years after the March 11, 2011, Great East Japan Earthquake which upended long-held views about where megaquakes were likely to strike scientists like Bedford, a researcher with the GFZ German Research Center for Geosciences in Potsdam, are developing new tools to better understand the threat, while others are digging deep into the past in a search for geological clues. Each arrow on Bedford’s animated analysis represents tiny movements over time most at a speed of well under 1 millimeter per day of the Japanese archipelago, as detected by the thousands of highly accurate GPS stations that dot one of the world’s most seismically active countries. Red circles spring up now and then to mark an earthquake.
