For many years, researchers have been studying a state park in Nevada, but despite their efforts, the reason for the high number of ichthyosaur deaths…
The quake lasted four hours and identified layering in the crust that could indicate a meteoroid impact. The 4.7 magnitude temblor happened in May 2022…
Oxygen is the key substance for life and one of the most abundant elements on Earth. However, it’s still unknown whether oxygen is present and…
New research publishes first data on the Red Planet’s magnitude 4.7 quake that occurred earlier this year. Late on the Earth night of May 4,…
Samples from the catastrophic 2018 Montecito mudslides were utilized by researchers led by Douglas Jerolmack and Paulo Arratia of Penn to better understand the complex forces…
Supershear earthquakes occur when a fault ruptures faster than seismic shear waves can travel through rock. The events were thought to be rare because scientists…
Venus may have been transformed from a temperate and wet world to the acidic hothouse it is today with help from vast volcanic activity lasting…
The composition of gases could forewarn of increased volcanic activity. Volcanic eruptions are dangerous, but unfortunately, they are also difficult to predict. Now, a team…
The reduced atmosphere in the upper atmosphere will increase satellites’ risk of collision with space pollution. According to a recent study from the British Antarctic…
Early crust on Mars may be more complex than researchers previously thought—and it may even be similar to Earth’s original crust. The Martian surface is…
New evidence for an ancient northern ocean on Mars has been uncovered in a recently released set of topography maps. These maps offer the strongest…
Research led by Harvard University offers new, sharper proof of early plate tectonics and flipping of geomagnetic poles. New evidence points to the role of…
Researchers at the University of Rochester have created a more accurate simulation of the impact that created the Vredefort crater two billion years ago. An…
Magnetometers detected faint signals that may improve our understanding of what happens before earthquakes and offer promise for early detection. Scientists studying intermediate to large…
New research has found that the world’s next supercontinent, Amasia, will most likely form when the Pacific Ocean closes in 200 to 300 million years….
Scientists seeking to understand how melting ice in Antarctica will impact the planet’s oceans often use computational modeling. Their recent efforts have focused on ice-sheet…
Below the thick icy crust of Jupiter’s moon Europa is a massive, global ocean where the snow floats upwards onto inverted ice peaks and submerged…
