Earthquakes can be a pretty common aspect of life in Alaska. From tiny little tremors that some people don’t even notice, to big ones like the 7.0 quake in November 2018. So for this episode we’re going to dig into the earth to learn more about seismic activity. ATMI senior producer Daisy Carter spoke with Rob Witter, a research geologist with the U.S. Geological Survey. He talks about studying the impacts and evidence of earthquakes, tsunamis, ghost forests, and what he calls geological detective work. Hosted by Zinn Rogers. Music by Kendrick Whiteman. Sound design by Tyler Felson. Edited by Ormund Alaois. Alaska Teen Media Institute is based in Anchorage, Alaska. We would like to acknowledge the Dena’ina people, whose land we work on. Many thanks to supporters of our podcast including Rosey Robards and Nat Herz. The views expressed in this program do not necessarily represent the views of our sponsors.

Earthquakes with Research Geologist Rob Witter | Zoom Room #22

If you were in Anchorage or Southcentral Alaska on November 30th, you definitely felt the big 7.0 magnitude earthquake. The earthquake was the largest to hit the region since the Good Friday earthquake in 1964. Jeff Landfield sat down with Rob Witter, a research geologist with the US Geological Survey, to talk about the science behind what happened. They discuss the recent quake, what kind it was, different kinds of earthquakes, the 1964 quake, and earthquakes in Alaska in general. If you have earthquake questions, like many of us did after the quake, this is a must listen.
