A steady underground pulse has been discovered beneath East Africa, where researchers believe a new ocean is gradually forming. The rhythmic movement was found in the Afar region of Ethiopia, a ...

Deep beneath the surface of the Atlantic Ocean, scientists have uncovered an extraordinary undersea world that may hold the ...

Whether you travel frequently, work on your commute, or need better security than public Wi-Fi networks afford, the best mobile hotspots keep you connected.

The ground continued to roil with 27 aftershocks that eventually gave way to the intense, shallow 7.5-magnitude temblor centered about 6 miles deep, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

A mysterious 'ghost plume' has been spotted beneath eastern Oman. Emanating from the Earth's core, this hot pillar of soft ...

It is challenging to strongly localize temperature in small volumes because heat transfer is a diffusive process. Here we show how to overcome this limitation using electrodynamic hot spots and ...

Strontium titanate (SrTiO3) is the “silicon” in the emerging field of oxide electronics. While bulk properties of this material have been studied for decades, new unexpected phenomena have recently ...

The most well-known geologic hotspot is the Hawaiian Islands, where the movement of the Pacific plate has left a chain of islands, atolls, and seamounts more than 3,700 miles long.

The in-situ permeability data comprises more than 5,000 measurements collected by Andrade (2020) and Galvão (2018) on the outcrop using a TinyPerm3 mini-permeameter with no confining pressure ...

Tectonics and Structural Geology. Studying the tectonic forces within the Earth give rise to continents, ocean basins, mountain ranges, earthquake belts, and most volcanoes, along with the resulting ...

The 1980 eruption of Mt. St. Helens — which began with a series of small earthquakes in mid-March and peaked with a cataclysmic flank collapse, avalanche, and explosion on May 18 — was not the largest ...
