Summary:
The Alaska-Aleutian Megathrust is a seldom-visited area of the world where some of Earth's most powerful earthquakes, known as megathrusts, occur. This volatile arc of islands in the northern Pacific Ocean was created by a subduction zone between two of Earth's tectonic plates. The volcanic activity there has created countless earthquakes and tsunamis over the centuries.
