Recent scientific discoveries reveal two extraordinary phenomena that could change our understanding of Earth's hydrology.

Under the Sierra Nevada in California, scientists have observed a rare phenomenon that sheds light on the dynamics of the ...

New research shows that when an asteroid slammed into the moon billions of years ago, it carved out a pair of grand canyons ...

The Earth's surface is constantly reshaped by the movement of tectonic plates, which make up the continental crust on which ...

However, there is no evidence of plate subduction—a geological process in which one tectonic plate is forced beneath another as they converge at a plate boundary—anywhere near this region.

First, the populations become physically separated, often by a long, slow geological process like an uplift of land, the movement of a glacier, or formation of a body of water. Next, the separated ...

He recalls his moment of inspiration: “The ‘aha!’ moment for me was thinking, how about we link this process of geological hydrogen production with the process of making Haber-Bosch ammonia?” This ...

Researchers develop a novel methodology called Roughness-CANUPO-Dip-Facet (R-C-D-F), which leverages machine learning to ...

Ridge subduction is an important geological process that triggers volcanic activity, thermal metamorphism (the alteration of rocks by heat), and hydrothermal activity (chemical reactions between ...
