The west end of Kentucky is in the New Madrid seismic zone and has a significant earthquake hazard. The Kentucky Geological Survey Web site has much more detail, including a simplified, clickable version of the state geologic map. 18 of 50 Louisiana Geologic Map Geologic Maps of the 50...
with low linear ranges that result from erosion of faulted and folded rocks. Major faults run parallel to the low ridges, and the greatest—thenotoriousSan Andreas Fault—was responsible for theearthquake that all but destroyed San Francisco in 1906. Along the California–Oregon border, everything...
Receiver function analysis was carried out using data from the United States Geological Survey global earthquake catalogue, a network of closely spaced onshore recording stations and the core codes in https://github.com/bkeats/Crustal-structure-ophiolites-and-flexure-beneath-the-Oman-UAE-mountains. ...
The absence of a strong large-scale pattern of attenuation decreasing eastward at periods \(\gtrsim 6 \, \hbox {s}\) had already been observed in an early study based on a small number of regional earthquake measurements25. More recent studies that show a significant heterogeneity of attenuat...

Disaster recovery, on the other hand, protects against multiple points of failure and aims to restore critical workloads to an operational state after an extreme disruption, such as when an earthquake or hurricane takes a facility down. DR sites are typically geographically distant from one another...
