The coronavirus pandemic has brought chaos to lives and economies around the world. But efforts to
curb the spread of the virus might mean that the planet itself is moving a little less. Researchers who
study Earth’s movement are reporting a drop in seismic noise — the hum of vibrations in the planet’s
crust — that could be the result of transport networks and other human activities being shut down. They
say this could allow detectors to spot smaller earthquakes and boost efforts to monitor volcanic activity
and other seismic events. A noise reduction of this magnitude is usually only experienced briefly around
Christmas, says Thomas Lecocq, a seismologist the Royal Observatory of Belgium in Brussels, where the
drop has been observed. Just as natural events such as earthquakes cause Earth’s crust to move, so do
vibrations caused by moving vehicles and industrial machinery. And although the effects from individual
sources might be small, together they produce background noise, which reduces seismologists’ ability to
detect other signals occurring at the same frequency.
