"1964 Quake: The Great Alaska Earthquake" is an eleven minute video highlighting the impacts and effects of America's largest recorded earthquake. It is an expanded version of the four minute video "Magnitude 9.2". Both were created as part of USGS activities acknowledging the fifty year anniversary of the quake on March 27, 2014.

This webinar is presented by Jennifer Cartwright and Bill Wolfe of the USGS Tennessee Water Science Center. In the Southeastern U.S., "insular ecosystems" may be particularly vulnerable to ecological effects from climate change.
