Can San Diego Survive the “Big One?”
Sudden tremors rip open a jagged chasm along California’s San Andreas Fault. Originating 60 miles south of Palm Springs near the Salton Sea, a northwest rupture ripples the earth’s crust like a pond’s surface, radiating outward and sending shock waves directly into Los Angeles. San Diego bobs up and down like a buoy. This visual simulation of a magnitude 7.7 earthquake along the San Andreas Fault, called TeraShake, allows researchers to study variables such as rupture direction and surface velocity. Rendered by the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) Department of Visual services, it presents the biggest and most detailed scenario of “The Big One”.
