The researchers theorize that these far-off remnants could either be deposits of silica-rich material that have hung around ...

"We don't know exactly what they are or what material is creating the patterns we have uncovered," researcher Thomas Schouten said.

Learn about recent Israeli missile strikes in Syria that registered on the Richter Scale, which measures an earthquake's strength.

In regions of convergence, one plate can sink under another in a subduction zone, or two colliding plates can form a mountain belt. At divergent boundaries, plates move away from each other and ...

But as author Henry Cloud says, “boundaries help us keep the good in and the bad out”, and sometimes it doesn’t hurt to have a few no-go’s when it comes to love. What are some boundaries ...

Using high-resolution models and the Piz Daint supercomputer, researchers identified anomalies beneath oceans and continental ...

Hidden deep beneath the Pacific Ocean, researchers have uncovered anomalies in the Earth’s mantle that defy existing ...

These neighbours are spread across its northern, eastern, and western boundaries, forming a rich and diverse connection. To the northwest, India is bordered by Pakistan and Afghanistan ...

Understanding Earth’s structure is key to unlocking its internal dynamics. Seismic tomography shows faster-than-normal wave ...

This discipline is primarily concerned with the erosion and deposition of rock and sediments by wind and water, but also includes the creation of topography through tectonics. Soil carbon cycling ...
