Field area and glacier retreat due to calving. (A) Location of Börgen Bay at the West Antarctic Peninsula. Bathymetry from ETOPO 1 global relief model (74). (B) Bathymetry of Börgen Bay from multibeam echosounder data and coastline/topography from Landsat imagery (see Materials and Methods). Dots mark locations of conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) profiles used here, with profiles taken before (red) and after (blue) the calving event. (C) Landsat images of the William Glacier front from (top) 17 January 2020 and (bottom) 24 January 2020. In both panels, the orange line marks the glacier front on 17 January 2020 to highlight the retreat of the glacier between those dates. Credit: Science Advances (2022). DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.add0720

Tsunamis’ magnetic fields are detectable before sea level change

On September 29, 2009, a tsunami caused substantial damage and loss of life in American Samoa, Samoa, and Tonga. The tsunami was generated by a large earthquake in the Southern Pacific Ocean. Credit: NOAA

New tsunami risk identified in Indonesia

Japan's risk of giant tsunamis may have grown when the angle of a down-going slab of ocean crust declined. Top: ocean crust (right) slides under continental crust at a steep angle, causing faulting (red lines) in seafloor sediments piled up behind. Bottom: as the angle shallows, stress is transferred to sediments piled onto the continental crust, and faults develop there. Blue dots indicate resulting earthquakes. At left in both images, the change in angle also shifts the region where magma fueling volcanoes is generated, pushing eruptions further inland.
