The crust of volcanically active Venus could be churning with convection currents just like the Earth's mantle. This is the conclusion of researchers from the Washington University in St. Louis, who ...
Scientists discovered plate anomalies in Earth's mantle using seismic wave analysis. These mysterious structures challenge tectonic theories.
A study led by geophysicist Anne M. Hofmeister in Arts & Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis proposes that imbalanced forces and torques in the Earth-moon-sun system drive circulation of ...

Two massive 'blobs' hidden deep inside Earth may be secretly controlling its magnetic field
The blobs lie at the base of Earth’s mantle, around 1,802 miles beneath Africa and the Pacific.
Scientists have been trying to solve the mystery of why plate tectonics works the way it does for over a hundred years. And they might have just uncovered a key to cracking it. Eons is available to ...

Earth’s Strongest Ocean Current Is Failing—And the Consequences Could Be Catastrophic
The Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the strongest ocean current on Earth, is rapidly weakening due to the accelerating ...
The speed of seismic waves can reveal the temperature of structures under Earth’s surface, with faster waves indicating cooler temperatures and slower waves, warmer ones. Unusually low wave speeds ...
