️ Earth has its own geological clock
A study published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment reveals the existence of a 60-million-year cycle combining tectonics, biogeochemistry, and marine biodiversity. By analyzing ...
You would have a hard time finding these common Earth rocks on our neighboring planets. Here’s what makes our landscapes so unique. Limestone landscapes, like this one in the Stone Forest in China’s ...
What are some events that all of us have had in our lives? Ask the class "What are some events that all of us have had in our lives?" Make a list of 5 or 6 things on the board. Let’s organize these!
Earth’s surface is the “living skin” of our planet—it connects the physical, chemical, and biological systems. Over geological time, landscapes change as this surface evolves, regulating the carbon ...
A new analysis of rocks thought to be at least 2.5 billion years old helps clarify the chemical history of Earth's mantle -- the geologic layer beneath the planet's crust. The findings hone scientists ...
When we think about the Earth’s magnetic field, we often associate it with compasses and navigation. However, did you know that our planet’s magnetic field has a rich history of change, including ...
Emerging evidence suggests that plate tectonics, or the recycling of Earth's crust, may have begun much earlier than previously thought — and may be a big reason that our planet harbors life. When you ...
The United States has a habit of showcasing its geology. Long before cities and highways showed up, forces beneath the ...
From ecosystem change and soil quality to hydrology and natural hazards, Earth studies have never been so important. But in a crowded field of concerns, how can researchers prioritise the most ...
Previous models of Earth's recent (100 million years) geomorphology have been patchy at best. For the first time a detailed continuous model of the Earth's landscape evolution is presented, with ...
