What JUST EMERGED in Charleston, South Carolina SHOCKED Scientists!

Charleston may look stable, but beneath the city lies a surprisingly restless landscape. Built on layers of soft sediment, marsh deposits, and ancient seabeds, the city is slowly sinking while sea levels continue to rise. It was also the site of one of the strongest earthquakes in eastern U.S. history in 1886, yet scientists still don't fully understand the hidden fault system responsible. Beneath Charleston are buried rivers, drowned forests, shifting barrier islands, mysterious Carolina Bays, and fossils from ancient oceans. Combined with increasing flooding, erosion, hurricanes, and ongoing geological change, Charleston remains one of America's most fascinating—and surprisingly unstable—coastal cities.
