An update of the convection code ASPECT enables full coupling of plume dynamics with buoyancy effects of transition zone ...
New research suggests that dark energy isn't needed to explain the acceleration in the expansion of the universe — instead ...
Scientists have known since the 1960s that mantle plumes stay in place for a very long time while the Earth's plates move ...
A team of geologists and mineral physicists at Harvard University, the University of California, Argonne National Laboratory ...
"The Earth's mantle is the engine that drives all these phenomena. Take, for example, mantle plumes, which are large bubbles of hot material that rise from the Earth's deep interior as in a lava ...
Schematic representation of the process of subduction of tectonic plates and of a mantle plume rising from an LLSVP. In the latter, the mineral grains are larger than those in the subducted plates.
Take, for example, mantle plumes, which are large bubbles of hot material that rise from the Earth’s deep interior as in a lava lamp.” Once they finally reach the surface, they cause vulcanism ...
Here’s how it works. Continent-size islands deep inside Earth's mantle could be more than a billion years old, a new study finds. Known as large low-seismic-velocity provinces (LLSVPs), these ...
