On March 28, Myanmar was rocked by a 7.8 magnitude earthquake that claimed over 5,000 lives and caused damage even in ...

According to a separate group’s paper published in the same journal, the southern portion of the rupture occurred at an ...

A clip recorded in Myanmar in March reveals a curved path of the fault slip, which can help scientists better understand the ...

The first studies of the 28 March 2025 magnitude 7.8 Myanmar earthquake suggest that the southern portion of its rupture ...

Seismologists reveal that the March 28, 2025, Myanmar earthquake likely moved at 'supershear' velocity, which is analogous to ...

The supershear effect may have led to greater damage at greater distances than typical earthquakes, with significant structural failures observed as far away as Bangkok in neighbouring Thailand ...

However, the 2025 rupture uniquely highlighted cascading risks: its supershear velocity and extensive surface deformation triggered secondary disasters, from infrastructure collapse in Myanmar to ...

The rupture velocity is believed to have exceeded the shear wave velocity, classifying the event as a supershear earthquake." The earthquake hit Myanmar on March 28.

Seismological research is directly related to the incubation, occurrence, and evolution of earthquakes. Scientists seek to reveal potential earthquake precursors by monitoring the stress state of ...
