Enduring folklore of “ghost lights” haunting a Lowcountry town in South Carolina may be more fact than myth, a new study suggests. However, the so-called “Summerville Light” isn’t the work of a ghost, ...
Geophysicists at ETH Zurich have been looking into the Earth's lower mantle in particular. Advert The aim was to 'find out where plate material that has sunken into the Earth's interior is located' by ...
And geophysicists at ETH Zurich modeled the Earth's lower mantle, finding areas in the planet's interior that appear to be the remains of submerged tectonic plates. Additionally, the release of a ...
Geophysicists have discovered unexpected structures deep within the Earth’s mantle, resembling subducted tectonic plates in areas where no subduction should have occurred, using a new high-resolution ...
An international team of geophysicists using a new imaging technique that measures the speed of seismic waves caused by earthquakes to locate the juncture of tectonic plates in the Earth’s mantle say ...
A team of geophysicists created a detailed model of Earth's lower mantle using earthquake waves. This indicates the presence of zones of rocks that are colder, or have a different composition ...
A team of geophysicists from ETH Zurich and the California Institute of Technology has made a groundbreaking discovery deep within Earth’s mantle that could change our understanding of plate tectonics ...
