As rescue and recovery efforts continue to ramp-up in earthquake-ravaged Myanmar, new details about how the geologic setting amplified the disaster are beginning to emerge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The March 28 magnitude 7.7 earthquake that rocked through Southeast Asia<\/a> collapsed buildings, dams and bridges, and killed at least 2,700 people. The rupture occurred along several hundred kilometers of a roughly 1,400-kilometer-long fault known as the Sagaing Fault. The epicenter of the event was just 10 kilometers beneath Earth\u2019s surface and occurred near the Myanmar city of Mandalay.<\/p>\n\n\n
