Scientists discovered an unusual consequence of the catastrophic earthquake in Japan, caused by reflected seismic waves from deep within the Earth. The movement was detected through GPS data, showing permanent ground displacement even in China. This marks the first documented case where a core-mantle boundary seismic wave triggered additional fault slip.
