Why Scientists Are PANICKING Over Oregon's NEW Data
In this video, we uncover the hidden geological forces reshaping Oregon—from the 600-mile-long Cascadia Subduction Zone and newly revised earthquake estimates to buried coastal basins, ancient megaquakes, active volcanoes, and a mysterious uplift near South Sister. Discover why scientists believe parts of the megathrust may behave differently, how 19 major ruptures were preserved in seafloor sediment, and why Oregon’s forests and snow make crucial warning signals harder to detect. What is really happening beneath Oregon’s quiet landscape?
