At the Geophysical Institute the diversity of our research focus is reflected by our disciplinary-based, functional groupings of faculty and research staff. These divisions are: space physics and aeronomy, atmospheric sciences, snow, ice, and permafrost, seismology, volcanology, and tectonics and sedimentation. Along with an ubiquitous, cross-discipline remote sensing group, these research divisions reflect the range and diversity of the active scientific research projects which reach from the center of the sun to the center of the earth and beyond.

(2015-07-13)On Wednesday October 15, 1947 at 4:10pm local time, a magnitude 7.2 earthquake struck Interior Alaska, near Healy. This is a collection of stories of six life-long Alaskan elders who felt this earthquake and shared their ...

(2018-09-12)On Friday, March 27, 1964, at about 4:30pm, a 22-year-old pilot named Andy Bachner took off from Fairbanks International Airport on a training flight for Wien Airlines. Alongside Bachner in the single-engine Tri-Pacer ...

(2018-09-04)The northeastern Brooks Range is long known to be seismically active, but meaningful analysis of the earthquake activity has been limited by the lack of instrumentation. The seismic record in the area dates back to the ...

(2018-05-25)We determine moment tensor solutions for nine events in the North Korea region. This is a supplement for a published manuscript by Alvizuri and Tape (2018).
-
(2017-10-27)We present waveform record sections of 10 earthquakes in the Minto Flats fault zone in central Alaska. These include the largest earthquakes to have occurred within the Minto Flats fault zone since the installation of the ...
-
(2018-05-03)We determine moment tensor solutions for 53 earthquakes in southern Alaska, which include 9 in Beluga, 22 in Cook Inlet, and 22 in Susitna. The moment tensors were estimated using both the waveforms and the first-motion ...

(2018-05-02)We provide results from an analysis of 14 historical earthquakes in the region of Cook Inlet and Susitna, south-central Alaska. Using global arrival times of P and S waves, we estimate probabilistic hypocenters using the ...
