America’s most unique ecosystems weren’t just created by time—they were sculpted by powerful geological forces. From volcanic eruptions to shifting tectonic plates, these natural wonders shaped the ...

Controversial Dutch researcher and seismologist Frank Hoogerbeets said on Monday that Greece is in volcanic and earthquake ...

Analysis of historical earthquake records and interseismic deformation across the East Anatolian Fault Zone suggests that coseismic slip in the 2023 earthquakes strongly corresponded to the slip ...

Palaeontology is the study of prehistoric species, mostly ones that are extinct. It focuses primarily on fossil data, using a variety of physical, chemical and biological techniques to analyse them.

Now, researchers have connected 49 seismic events to impact craters, proving that meteorite strikes leave distinct seismic ...

A stunning new study is challenging the conventional wisdom about Earth’s continents. For years, we’ve been taught that Earth ...

Nobody knew what they are, and whether they are only a temporary phenomenon, or if they have been sitting there for millions ...

To find out, the team used whole-Earth oscillation data from 104 past earthquakes to create a detailed 3D model of the upper ...

For millions of years, as the Arabian and Eurasian continental plates have drifted toward each other, the underground ancient ...
