Journal ArticleExamining Alaska’s Earthquakes on Land and SeaAbers, G.A.North America’s largest earthquakes and most powerful volcanic eruptions occur along the Alaska Peninsula subduction zone, a meeting of two tectonic plates that sweeps an arc across the North Pacific margin between Alaska and Russia. However, studies that would help us understand these hazards are few and far between in this remote, sparsely populated region. A major shoreline-crossing community seismic experiment, now under way, spans the Alaska Peninsula subduction zone, with the intention of filling gaps in our knowledge of this region. Information that we collect along this margin can provide direct information about many firstorder questions about subduction zone processes that influence earthquakes and volcanism.2019-03-2610099902Eosonline publ.2324-9250https://doi.org/1654568National Science Foundation
