[s13e1] A Seismic Shift -

Immediately following a major underwater quake, the water may pull away from the coast—a phenomenon known as drawback—before returning as a series of massive waves.

Intense shaking along sandy shorelines can cause the ground to lose its strength and sink up to six feet, potentially dragging structures and trees down with it. [S13E1] A Seismic Shift

Scientists use the "seismic gap" theory to identify fault segments that haven't moved in a long time, marking them as the most likely locations for future massive ruptures. Immediate Hazards: Shaking and Inundation Immediately following a major underwater quake, the water

When this stress finally releases, it could trigger a magnitude 9.0+ earthquake. Immediately following a major underwater quake

States are currently updating infrastructure and policies to mitigate the impact of such a "seismic shift".
