That's because at seismometers closer to a massive quake's epicenter, the slowly moving vibrations of typical seismic waves often arrive at instruments before Earth's tectonic slabs have stopped shifting, thus masking the signals generated by the temblor's final spasms.

The signals generated by the magnitude - 9.1 quake that struck Japan were barely one - billionth g, the amount of Earth's gravitational field at sea level, but they traveled at the speed of light and were detected at seismometers hundreds of kilometers away, the researchers report today in Science.

From 1950 to 1965, for example, no fewer than seven quakes of m8.5 or more jolted Earth.

Now, researchers have come up with a way to more quickly gauge a big quake's magnitude and thus provide faster, more accurate tsunami warnings: by measuring the miniscule changes in Earth's gravitational field that are generated when massive slabs of the planet's crust shift by dozens of meters over the course of a few minutes.

Sachiko Tanaka of the National Research Institute for Earth Science and Disaster Prevention in Tsukuba, Japan, studied 1126 quakes that happened along the Sumatran fault, where the Eurasian plate slides below the Indo - Australian plate, between 1976 and 2008.

By cutting vertical trenches into the ground along the faults, Rockwell and his colleagues were able to see signs of previous quakes from the exposed cross-sections of earth and rock.

As a result, the quake, which was the most powerful ever recorded to hit Japan, may have occurred earlier than it might have otherwise, said Andreas Mavrommatis, a graduate student in Stanford's School of Earth Sciences.

In February that year, a quake of 8.8 magnitude killed more than 700 people and shifted the Earth's axis.

Seismologists at Harvard and Columbia Universities first reported on their tracking of ice - quakes from glaciers in Greenland in 2003, and later showed this glacial earth - shaking was on the rise.

In the case of the 2011 quake, the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellites orbiting Earth captured the significant ionospheric signature produced by the quake's infrasonic wave output.

An investigation of the most powerful earthquake ever recorded deep within the Earth suggests deep quakes may be better at dissipating pent - up energy than similar quakes near the surface, researchers say in a new study.

A high - magnitude earthquake in Japan, one notion goes, might redistribute stress in Earth's crust, subsequently triggering another temblor in the following months or years — a quake that could even strike as far away as the western shores of the U.S..

Similarly, within 48 hours of the quake, the country's network of around 1200 GPS stations revealed that Earth's crust in central Honshu had shifted some 4 metres eastward following the release of strain along the fault.

A network of seismometers around the volcano indicated that the ground started shaking about an hour after the Sumatran quake — due to surface waves traveling along Earth's crust.

Not only did the quake devastate villages and roads, but the earth split open and swallowed sections of the forests and bamboo groves that shelter and feed pandas and other endangered wildlife.

Stein and Mian Liu, a geophysicist at the University of Missouri, Columbia, find that GPS equipment installed throughout the region has failed to detect strain building up in Earth's crust that would be required to trigger fresh quakes.

For example, in the weeks before a magnitude - 5.4 quake struck about 15 kilometers northeast of San Jose in October 2007, an instrument near the epicenter sensed a number of unusual magnetic pulses, presumably emanating from deep in the Earth.

A team of researchers at the University of Tokyo and their collaborators found that when stress exerted on Earth's crust was high, the levels of a helium isotope, helium - 4, released in the groundwater was also high at sites near the epicenter of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake, a magnitude 7.3 quake in southwestern Japan, which caused 50 fatalities and serious damage.

The model also estimated the maximum displacement of Earth's surface from the quake at approximately 0.4 inch (1 centimeter), which is at the threshold of what is detectable with UAVSAR.
