USGS geologists document potential paleoliquefaction features from past seismicity at the southernmost edge of the Central Virginia Seismic Zone
USGS geologists document potential paleoliquefaction features from past seismicity at the southernmost edge of the Central Virginia Seismic ZoneUSGS geologists document potential paleoliquefaction features from past seismicity at the southernmost edge of the Central Virginia Seismic Zone. Radiocarbon data suggest these features along Fountain Creek near Skippers, VA may be related to an earthquake that occurred near Petersburg, VA in the late 1700s.

NY Water Science Center Divers
Photograph taken during the 1st Annual NYWSC Dive Safety Day. The purpose of the safety day is to allow the NYWSC divers time to practice the skills they utilize during their routine dives, while also giving them a chance to work an any additional skills that might aid in dive safety and communication.
