新西兰的研究揭示了潜入区内隐蔽的压力障碍,这些障碍减少了最坏的地震和海啸风险。 New Zealand research reveals hidden stress barriers in subduction zone that reduce worst-case earthquake and tsunami risks.
对新西兰 Hikurangi-Kermadec 俯冲带的新研究揭示了“隐藏的应力屏障”，它们就像制动器一样，防止断层一下子滑落。 New research on New Zealand's Hikurangi-Kermadec subduction zone reveals "hidden stress barriers" that act like brakes, preventing faults from slipping all at once. 这些障碍可以减少该区域发生最有可能想象的地震和海啸的可能性,用真实世界数据改进地震模型。 These barriers could reduce the chances of the worst-imaginable earthquakes and tsunamis in the region, and improve earthquake models with real-world data. 新模式提高了对未来地震和海啸风险的认识,有助于为下一次重大地震和海啸事件做准备。 The new models have increased understanding of future earthquakes and tsunami risks, helping prepare for the next major earthquake and tsunami event.
