The Earth's interior is composed of four layers, three solid and one liquid—not magma but molten metal, nearly as hot as the surface of the sun. The deepest layer is a solid iron ball ...

You can't miss the exterior of Dynamic Earth, rising like a white sail from the base of Arthur's Seat. Inside, a series of interactive exhibits, cover the Earth's creation, geology, ecosystems ...

The Earth has a layered structure made up of the core, the mantle and the crust. Different elements are present in different parts of the Earth’s structure. The crust is made from enormous ...

Full Waveform Inversion (FWI) is capable of finely characterizing the velocity structure, anisotropy, viscoelasticity, and attenuation properties of subsurface media, which provides critical ...

Scientists have discovered that deep inside planets like Neptune, Uranus, and even distant exoplanets, extreme conditions can ...

The Earth is made up of different layers: Therefore, instead of tectonic plates moving because of the convection currents, evidence suggests it is the plates that drive the convection. Slab pull ...

A vast and evolving anomaly in Earth’s magnetic field, situated above South America and the southern Atlantic Ocean, ...

This teardrop-shaped field shields Earth from high-energy particles launched at us from the sun and elsewhere in the cosmos. But due to the field's structure, some particles get funneled to Earth ...
