California is on borrowed time with its earthquake patterns. Vasiliki Mouslopoulou, seismic expert, reveals why the San Andreas Fault is more overdue than ever. Earthquakes occur when tectonic plates shift along fault lines, cracks in the Earth’s crust. In California, active faults like the San Andreas cause frequent quakes. Scientists study the average time between past earthquakes to estimate when the next one might be due. By comparing California’s patterns with Japan and Greece, researchers are refining global seismic predictions and making forecasts more accurate worldwide.

Congratulations to Vasiliki Mouslopoulou for advancing our understanding of earthquakes. We look forward to future discoveries as scientists compare Californian faults with their global counterparts.
