A magnitude 7.0 earthquake ruptured the Mendocino Transform Fault offshore Northern California on December 5, 2024. The USGS and colleagues from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution’s Ocean Bottom Seismic Instrument Center deployed our new fleet of rapid response ocean bottom seismographs just 11 days later—the fastest response in U.S. history.

MRDF Geophysical Survey
The USGS has a long history of studying seafloor instability in the Mississippi River Delta Front, beginning in the 1970s.
As part of the OASIS project, we play a leading role in seafloor mapping, geophysical imaging, and interpreting the processes that shape this important region.
