Using advanced computer simulations, researchers have reconstructed the geological past of the region, uncovering a ...

Giant regions of the mantle where seismic waves slow down may have formed from subducted ocean crust, a new study finds.

The mantle of the Earth, up to 1,800 miles (2,900 kms) thick and 84% of the Earth's volume, was assumed to be a simple ...

Indian scientists have uncovered the possible cause behind the Indian Ocean Geoid Low (IOGL), the lowest geoid anomaly on ...

Giant regions of the mantle where seismic waves slow down may have formed from subducted ocean crust, a new study finds.

The properties of the mantle below the crust also play ... to-side variations in viscosity. Today, a hot "plume" of rock is rising from the deep interior of the Earth beneath Iceland, where ...

These results suggest that similar reactions between helium and iron may have occurred within Earth’s core shortly after its formation, trapping much of the primordial helium-3 in the material that ...

This study out of the University of Houston points to a new theory that as North America began to split away, the Great Lakes ...

Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost lander successfully touched down on the moon, deploying experiments like the LISTER drill and ...
