Scientists are using artificial intelligence to understand escalating unrest in Italy's Campi Flegrei, a volcanic area that is home to hundreds of thousands of people. Subscribe to our newsletter for ...

A team at Los Alamos National Laboratory used machine learning — an application of artificial intelligence — to detect the hidden signals that precede an earthquake. The findings at the Kīlauea ...

A new report studied a massive earthquake that ruptured in the southeast Asian country of Myanmar on March 28 — on a fault known for being eerily similar to California’s notorious San Andreas fault.
