Earth’s Longest Volcanic Ridge May Be an Underwater Moving HotspotThe deep oceans are far from flat. They feature ridges, trenches, seamounts, and valleys, creating a diverse and dramatic ...
After suspecting the presence of a series of underwater volcanoes near the Cook Islands, researchers have now mapped out the ...
The Earth’s mantle, stretching up to 1,800 miles thick and making up a whopping 84% of the planet’s volume, used to be ...
This is a 3D view of the top 1,000 kilometers of the earth's mantle beneath the central Pacific showing the relationship between seismically-slow "plumes" and channels imaged in the study.
The source for the isotopically-enriched Hawaiian magmas contains peridotites that experienced near-surface melting prior ...
Indian scientists have uncovered the possible cause behind the Indian Ocean Geoid Low (IOGL), the lowest geoid anomaly on Earth or "Gravity Hole" ...
Conducted by researchers from Ocean University of China and Tohoku University, Japan, the work combines innovative seismic methodologies to map mantle flow patterns, slab-plume interactions ...
Using the adjusted GIA model, they reduced the viscosity to the upper mantle rocks along the path of the plume across Greenland. The new model simulations showed that the rate of ground uplift was ...
