What are 4 main earthquake hazards in California?
California faces several significant earthquake hazards, including ground shaking, which can cause structural damage to buildings and infrastructure. Surface rupture occurs when the ground breaks along a fault line, potentially leading to severe displacement. Liquefaction, where saturated soil temporarily loses strength during shaking, can result in building settlement or collapse. Lastly, secondary hazards such as landslides and tsunamis can arise from seismic activity, posing additional risks to communities.
