Hidden barrier found 400 miles inside Venus that blocks rising hot rock and creates ring-shaped volcanic features called ...
Scientists have proposed a new explanation for Venus' giant, crown-shaped geological features, known as coronae.
Venus, our planetary neighbor, displays strange geological formations on its surface in the shape of coronae that have ...
Researchers say the process is controlled from below by the mantle upwelling. This flow of molten rock from Earth’s interior shapes the surface above. But until now, scientists didn’t fully understand ...
Around 60 million years ago, a massive upwelling of hot rock from deep beneath the surface of Iceland sparked volcanic eruptions across the North Atlantic, spreading from Greenland to Ireland and ...
A joint research group has identified that the spatial scale of "heterogeneity" in the upper mantle, caused by a large-scale flow called a mantle plume rising from deep Earth, is less than 10 ...
Dr. Shiki Machida from the Chiba Institute of Technology revealed that the scale of material heterogeneity in the upper ...
With unprecedented clarity, scientists have directly observed a subduction zone—the collision point where one tectonic plate ...
