Searching for the Seiche

On 16 September 2023, seismometers around the world began ringing, registering a signal that -- for 9 days -- wobbled back and forth every 92 seconds. A second, similar signal appeared a month later, lasting about a week.  (Image credit: S. Rysgaard; research credit: T. Monahan et al.; via Eos) Read the full article

Climate change-triggered landslide unleashes a 650-foot mega-tsunami

In September 2023, scientists around the world detected a mysterious seismic signal that lasted for nine straight days. An international tea

In September 2023, scientists around the world detected a mysterious seismic signal that lasted for nine straight days. An international team of scientists, including seismologists Alice Gabriel and Carl Ebeling of UC San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography came together to solve the mystery. A study published in Science provides the stunning solution: In an East Greenland fjord, a mountaintop collapsed into the sea and triggered a mega-tsunami about 200 meters (650 feet) tall. The giant wave rocked back and forth inside the narrow fjord for nine days, generating the seismic waves that reverberated through Earth's crust, baffling scientists around the world.

Good thing Seiche is there to make it worse!

Villa Epecuén, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina 

In November 1985 the rains were unusually heavy and the lake burst its banks. The entire town of more than 100 blocks disappeared under ten meters of water.
