Recent measurements from NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) reveal a remarkable shift along the California coast. In this detailed analysis, we investigate the phenomenon of abrupt 'uplift' — where the coastline is rising by up to 4 inches (10 centimeters) per week in some places [00:08].
In this video we discuss:
• NASA & JPL Data: An analysis of radar signals indicating significant landslides in the South Bay [00:00].
• The 'Uplift' Phenomenon: Why This Vertical Movement Differs From the Well-Known Horizontal Displacements of the San Andreas Fault [02:17].
• Expert Insights: Dr. Ya-Ling Ma (Sacramento Seismic Lab) and Dr. Elena Ruiz (Caltech) on the unpredictability of these processes [03:37], [11:27].
• Infrastructure under pressure: The consequences for ports, pipelines and water management systems due to the changing sea level relationship [06:21].
• Historical Context: A Comparison with the Cascadia Event of 1700 and What It Means for the Future [12:07].
