University of Haifa geologists prepared the first-ever geological map of young faults (fractures) in the Kinneret (Sea of Galilee), marking the locations prone to earthquakes. \u201cUntil now researchers believed that most of the tectonic activity takes place in the eastern part of the Sea of Galilee,\u201d explains\u00a0Dr. Michael Lazar.<\/a>\u00a0\u201cNow we know that the fault splits and passes in the middle of the lake.\u201d Twelve newly installed seismic monitoring stations around the lake will register all minor earthquakes occurring during the year and analyze the geochemical composition of the springs around the lake. The study, led by Dr. Lazar of the Dr. Moses Strauss Department of Marine Geosciences at the\u00a0 School , was conducted in collaboration with researchers from Italy, Switzerland and Norway. The findings were recently published in\u00a0Scientific Reports<\/a><\/em>.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
