Earthqu akes occur throughout the state and are a reminder of the ac tive subduction\, collision\, and faulting that have shaped th e highest mountains in North America. Over the past five yea rs\, seismic stations have been deployed in some of Alaska's most inaccessible regions. New seismic data provide opportun ities to characterize new fault zones and to image complex s ubsurface structures\, from the underlying Pacific slab to se dimentary basins within the crust. Complex structures produc e complex earthquake ground motion that can be modeled using high-performance computational resources. I will discuss ne w seismic deployments\, discoveries\, and scientific frontiers in Alaska.\n\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmat ion email containing information about joining the webinar.  PLEASE NOTE: Registration does not confirm or guarantee yo u will have a spot during the webinar\, as we are limited to 500 participants.
