About Cascadia Region Earthquake Science Center

The Cascadia Region Earthquake Science Center (CRESCENT) is the nation’s first subduction zone earthquake hazards center – a nexus for earthquake science and hazards research. CRESCENT has three overarching goals: 1) To develop a better foundational understanding of Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquakes and their associated hazards and to transfer this knowledge to other subduction zones. 2) To promote diversity and to train the next generation of geoscientists to address the challenges presented by our dynamic planet. 3) To provide a systematic approach to collaboration between researchers in academia and those in agencies that have mandates to produce hazard information that stakeholders, practitioners, and the public at large can trust and use.
