Did you know that Earth has vast hidden oceans beneath its surface? These underground water reserves, trapped deep within the planet, have a significant impact on our climate, geology, and even life ...

For years, scientists have pondered the mysterious structures deep within the Earth. Research indicates that they are ...

These ancient buried "super-continents"—known to scientists as large low-seismic-velocity provinces (LLSVPs)—were found ...

A new research reveals hidden 'sunken worlds' in Earth's mantle, offering clues about ancient crust and tectonic mysteries.

They extend nearly 1000 kilometres up from the outer core into the lower mantle, a slowly-moving layer between Earth’s crust and core. Because seismic waves pass more slowly through these ...

Scientists think a small rock discovered near Earth last August was hurled into space by an ancient impact on the lunar surface. By Becky Ferreira For a few months last fall, a school-bus-size ...

Japanese scientists have created the first-ever long-term dataset about Earth's entire atmosphere, stretching all the way to space. They hope the project will help shed light on some little ...

Unlike the geographic North Pole, which marks a fixed location, the magnetic north pole’s position is determined by Earth’s magnetic field, which is in constant motion. Over the past few ...

Earth and environmental sciences cover all aspects of Earth and planetary sciences, and broadly encompasses solid Earth processes, surface and atmospheric dynamics, Earth system history, climate ...

Scientists have identified mysterious formations deep in Earth’s mantle, raising new questions about the planet’s interior. These strange shapes, often referred to as "blobs," or "sunken worlds," ...

Many geologists attribute the great variation in the temperature gradient to complex irregularities in the structure of the earth's crust. Some even maintain that the interior of the earth is cold ...
