Observation of Shear Wave Anisotropy in the Earth’s Inner Core

by Daoyuan Sun 5 January 20228 July 2024

Coda-correlation wavefields reveal direction-dependent inner-core shear-wave speed, ~5 s faster in directions oblique to the Earth’s rotation axis than directions parallel to the equatorial plane.

Hot Lakes in a Cold Climate

by David S. Schimel 31 December 202119 October 2022

Arctic warming may release less carbon dioxide from high latitude lakes but increase their climate impact by releasing more methane.
