It took about 70 people from 15 different countries and more than 8,000 exchanged messages to crack the case on why the Earth rumbled for nine days last September. Check out this excellent example in The Washington Post of how researchers, working across disciplines and regions, can help us all better understand the impacts of climate change, and how to prevent a destabilizing event in the future.
