Dr. Lees on Japan's Earthquake and Tsunami

Dr. Jonathan Lees, an expert in seismology and volcanology, recently sat down for an interview about the magnitude 9.0 earthquake and resulting tsunami that struck Japan in mid-March. Besides concern about the tragic destruction caused by the earthquake and tsunami, Dr. Lees discusses the possible implications the earthquake could have for Japan's volcanoes, particularly Mount Fuji.
