An international research team may have found an explanation for seismic anomalies, the noticeable deviations in the behavior ...

About 1,800 miles (2,900 kilometers) below our feet, two enormous patches of strange rock sit above Earth’s core. New ...

Scientists have identified two massive thermochemical formations at Earth's core-mantle boundary that refine understanding of ...

Scientists may finally be closing in on the origins of two colossal, mysterious structures buried nearly 1,800 miles inside Earth—hidden formations that have puzzled researchers for decades. New ...

For decades, scientists have been baffled by two enormous, enigmatic structures buried deep inside Earth with features so vast and unusual that they defy conventional models of planetary evolution.

Continent-sized structures of mineral protruding from the lower mantle towards Earth's outer core may be contributing to an instability of our planet's magnetic field. The two odd formations – one ...

The Earth’s inner core, a solid sphere predominantly composed of iron and nickel, occupies a central role in our planet’s evolution and geodynamo processes. Although hidden beneath thousands of ...

While most of us take the ground beneath our feet for granted, written within its complex layers, like the pages of a book, is Earth's history. Our history. Research shows there are little-known ...

A Rutgers researcher and collaborators have linked unusual geological anomalies to Earth’s molten origins and its unique habitability. For many years, researchers have struggled to understand two ...

Earth’s inner core has both changed its relative rotation rate and deformed in the past few decades, according to an analysis of seismic waves recorded when the inner core occupied the same relative ...

Scientists have uncovered a previously unknown doughnut-shaped region within Earth's outer core, offering new insights into the dynamics of the planet's magnetic field. Located thousands of kilometers ...
