Atomic clocks are now so accurate that Earth’s gravity can be seen to slow them down. Geodesy is preparing to use this relativistic effect to measure elevation.Read More »
A high-resolution map of surface displacements indicates that the 2017 Chiapas earthquake caused substantial creep along a segment of the San Andreas Fault, located 3,000 kilometers away.Read More »Geology & Geophysics
A new model, ArcCRUST, reveals with unprecedent resolution the geometry and the thermal state of the oceanic crust of the High Arctic and Circum-Arctic domain.Read More »Hydrology, Cryosphere & Earth Surface
Earthquakes in mountain ranges produce a cascade of geological disturbances and hazards, from enormous landslides to climate change.Read More »Geology & Geophysics
Satellite-based radar images of motion along Turkey’s North Anatolian Fault are helping scientists understand when, where, and how creep occurs and its implications for seismic hazard.Read More »Geology & Geophysics
