Weathering of rocks can bind or release carbon dioxide — in active mountain ranges, carbon-dioxide release strongly dominates. Taiwan is an island of extremes: severe…
New study found that electrons can reach ultra-relativistic energies for very special conditions in the magnetosphere when space is devoid of plasma. Recent measurements from…
Radiocarbon measurements on the remains of 42,000-year-old New Zealand kauri trees provide the basis for better calibration of geological archives of this period. The last…
Past River Activity in Northern Africa Reveals Multiple Sahara Greenings The analysis of sediment cores from the Mediterranean Sea combined with Earth system models tells…
Scientists show the unfolding of one of the largest mass extinctions in Earth’s history. Earth’s history knows catastrophes that are unimaginable for humans. For example,…
For the first time, long-term photogrammetic series document the “life cycle” of a volcano. The analyses shows that volcanoes have a kind of memory. Volcanoes…
Electrons are locally heated to extremely high energies within the Van Allen Radiation Belts, new study finds. The Earth’s magnetic field is trapping high energy…
Researchers create novel 3D models with centimeter resolution of a volcano in Guatemala. Due to the difficult accessibility and the high risk of collapse or…
Fossil remains of tiny calcareous algae not only provide information about the end of the dinosaurs, but also show how the oceans recovered after the…
