In September of 2023, researchers detected a strange vibration all across the planet. They traced it back to a massive tsunami off the coast of Greenland, but the sound went on even after the wave was gone. As in, for nine full days....

Almost 50 million years ago, the biggest landslide in Earth's history occurred in Wyoming. An entire mountain slid 45 kilometers at one-third the speed of sound. But how could this happen when the slope was only 2 degrees?

Though we probably won’t find a literal Atlantis beneath the sea, that doesn’t mean that a human settlement hasn’t ever been lost to the water. Meet Doggerland.

This video highlights the efforts of researchers from Durham University's International Landslide Centre in understanding and predicting landslides. Through analyzing soil samples and using techniques like pressure shear measurement and...

The world's largest rainfall simulator, located in Sucuba, Japan, is a vital research facility used to study and prevent natural disasters caused by heavy rainfall, such as flooding and landslides. With 550 nozzles, it can simulate...

Landslides occur in every US state, killing dozens and costing around $4 billion each year. One of the most devastating in US history struck on January 9, 2018 in the town of Montecito, CA. We traveled to Montecito to speak with experts...

In the Spring of 1980, the Mount St Helens Volcano in Washington State erupted in one of the most violent events in recorded history. But a human catastrophe was prevented due to the More Economically Developed Country's capacity to...

Dr. Forrester explains how landslides occur.

Dr. Forrester explains how tectonic plates are at the heart of earthquakes and volcanoes.

Landslides are natural disasters where rocks, dirt, and debris slide down a slope, sometimes resulting in minor disturbances and other times in massive avalanches like the one in Japan. They are typically triggered by factors such as...

As the La Palma volcano shows no sign of stopping its eruption, there is a possibility it could cause a mega-tsunami.

Scientists are interested in Iapetus, Saturn's third largest moon, because of its massive landslides, long-runout landslides that can travel horizontally as much as 30 times their vertical falling distance. On Earth, landslides typically...

How to pronounce the idiom LANDSLIDE and what it means (hint: you can drop the D!). Try it yourself, make up a sentence and post it as a video response!

In 2018, Puerto Rico was devastated by Hurricane Maria. It was a Category 5 storm that may have killed 3,000 people. This 90 billion-dollar extremely powerful storm was a catastrophe in property damage, destruction, and deaths due to...

Gravity and erosion are major factors in changing the shape of the surface of Earth. The different types of erosion, and the major types of mass movements caused by gravity are discussed in this video. Other terminology includes:...

Kilauea is an active volcano in Hawaii that erupts every 10 to 20 years. In 2018, Kilauea eruptions on a rift zone destroyed more than 700 hundred homes, forced evacuations, and sent lava downhill to cover 14 square miles of land in...

Rain, snow, hail, ice, and every slushy mix in between make up the precipitation that touches everyone on our planet. But not all places rain equally. Precipitation falls differently in different parts of the world, as you see in NASA's...

The Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) is an international satellite mission to provide next-generation observations of rain and snow worldwide every three hours. NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) will launch...

Landslides are among the most common and dramatic natural hazards, reshaping landscapes -- and anything in their path. Tracking when and where landslides occur worldwide has historically been difficult, because of the lack of a...
