Explore the Secrets of Earthquakes: Uncover the mysteries behind the recent M 4.8 earthquake in New Jersey and learn what it reveals about seismic activity. Join us for an enlightening presentation where we'll dive into the origins of earthquakes in the United States, exploring their connections to faults and tectonic features. Discover the latest methods in earthquake forecasting and seismic hazard analysis, understand how seismic impacts vary across the country, and explore the various ways earthquakes can cause destruction—from ground shaking to tsunamis. We'll also analyze the recent Tewksbury earthquake and share insights from a recent field trip to earthquake-stricken areas in Turkey. Don’t miss out on this comprehensive look at earthquakes and how we can better prepare for their future impacts.

The widely felt vibrations from the recent M 4.8 earthquake in New Jersey has many people wondering: where do earthquakes occur and what do we need to understand about future earthquakes and their potential impacts? In this talk, we aim to address these questions. We will describe where past earthquakes have occurred in the United States and their association with faults and other tectonic features. You will learn about current approaches to earthquake forecasting and seismic hazard analysis, how seismic shaking varies across the country, and ways that earthquakes cause damage through ground shaking, ground failure, aftershocks, and even tsunamis. We will review the recent M 4.8 - 2024 Tewksbury, New Jersey Earthquake and what we can learn from this east coast seismic event. Finally, we will share select examples from a post-earthquake reconnaissance trip to Turkey following the 2023 Turkey-Syria earthquakes.Sponsored by the IEEE MOVE Weather TeamCo-sponsored by: IEEE-USA MOVE ProgramSpeaker(s): Dr. John Stamatakos , Dr. Kristin UlmerVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/418608
