Earth’s moving crust may be supercharging climate change more than we thought
For decades, climate science has treated Earth’s shifting crust as a slow, distant backdrop to the drama of global warming.
Stanford University researchers have pulled back a curtain on a hidden part of Earth that rarely makes headlines. Their new ...
A rare type of deep underground earthquake occurring in the Earth’s mantle has finally been isolated and mapped by Stanford researchers.
Stanford scientists have developed a new method for identifying rare earthquakes in the Earth’s upper mantle, under the ...
New research reveals that Earth’s continents owe their stability to searing heat deep in the planet’s crust. At more than 900°C, radioactive elements shifted upward, cooling and strengthening the ...
