A New View of Deep Earth’s Carbon Emissions
Advances in plate tectonics research allow a deeper understanding of how greenhouse gases escape from within the planet.
Seismotectonic Update of the Philippines-Taiwan Region
Using more than two decades of data, scientists find that the Philippine and Taiwan subduction region is controlled mainly by shallow seismicity and low magnitude earthquakes.
High-Pressure Reactions Can Turn Nonporous Rocks into Sponges
Mathematical models describe how water moves through rocks in deep Earth.
Exploring an Underwater Volcano from 16,000 Kilometers Away
Measurements of Hunga volcano’s crater continued for months after its 2022 eruption.
Unlocking Earth’s Terrestrial Sedimentary Record with Paleosols
Harnessing the micro-stratigraphy of pedogenic carbonates, scientists have demonstrated that age determination of fossil soils is possible via uranium-lead dating.
A Seismogenic Shear Zone Diagonal to the Main Himalayan Thrusts
Scientists document active seismic shear along a major lineament of Sikkim Himalaya diagonal to the Main Himalayan Thrusts.
How Tiny Cracks Lead to Large-Scale Faults
Researchers could soon gain new insights into fault development in Earth’s brittle crust, thanks to a computational approach that harnesses experimental observations of microscale rock damage.
The Nature of Mantle Flow May Depend on the Type of Slab Subducting
Researchers tease apart the links between slabs and mantle flow near subduction zones, upending some traditional views of subduction-induced mantle flow.
Plate Boundaries May Experience Higher Temperature and Stress Than We Thought
Surface heat flux data shed light on conditions deep below Earth’s surface, at a tectonic plate interface where major earthquakes initiate.
