When Alaska's remote Denali Fault unleashed a magnitude 7.9 temblor on November 3, 2002 (comparable in many ways to the quake that leveled San Francisco in 1906), geophysicists rued the paucity of monitoring stations closely enough located to measure accelerations directly along the fault.

A 1998, magnitude-5. 2 quake in northwestern Pennsylvania caused about 120 household supply water wells to go dry in the three months afterward, and the 2002 magnitude-7. 9 Denali Fault earthquake in Alaska caused a 2-foot water-level rise in a well in Wisconsin, more than a thousand miles from the epicenter.

The Denali Fault event was the largest strike-slip earthquake to occur in North America during the past 150 years.

Looking at such data, scientists at Radio-Hydro-Physics, a private research company in West Virginia, analyzed subtle shifts in satellite and ground radio transmissions and mapped a disturbance in the Earth's ionosphere over central Alaska before the Nenana Mountain earthquake of Oct. 23, 2002, now considered a fore-shock of the big Denali Fault quake which struck 11 days later.
