The events that have afflicted Japan since the catastrophic earthquake and tsunami of March 11 are all too well known, but the events that occurred before and the even more ominous events that may occur in the near future are less known.
With the help of seismologist Chen Ji from the University of California, Santa Barbara, Curiouser&Curiouser host Jai Ranganathan at Miller-McCune explains the plate tectonics underlying the enormously powerful earthquake, how that crustal shift generated a deadly tsunami, and why that release of pent-up fury may presage even greater violence in the future, and not less.
