Scientists continue to study major earthquake risks across the United States, including the potential for very large earthquakes along active fault systems. In this video, we look at the science behind magnitude 9.0+ earthquake scenarios, how major faults accumulate stress, and what researchers know about earthquake hazards in the U.S. We’ll also explore how scientists monitor fault activity, why earthquakes are difficult to predict, and what communities in high-risk areas can do to better understand and prepare for seismic events. This video is for educational and informational purposes and does not predict that a magnitude 9.0+ earthquake will occur. #Earthquake #EarthquakeScience #SanAndreasFault #Seismology #EarthquakeRisk Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music from TheSoul Sound: https://thesoul-sound.com/ Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive
