Seismologists have made a fascinating discovery about what lies beneath the Bermuda -- a never-before-seen plume of rock that ...
Science researchers have detected a massive 12.4-mile-thick layer of rock beneath Bermuda's ocean crust, the first structure ...
The Bermuda Triangle may not be the biggest mystery of the Atlantic. In a new study published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, scientists believe they have discovered the reason why ...
Far out in the Atlantic, Bermuda rises from the ocean as if it is defying the rules of geology. Its volcanoes went silent ...
It’s a particularly intriguing finding, considering scientists believe the area was once part of the supercontinent Pangea, ...
Volcanic islands, like the famed Hawaiian chain, are typically buoyed by hot, active magma plumes pushing up the Earth’s ...
Scientists have discovered an unusually thick rock layer, approximately 20 kilometers deep, beneath the Bermuda Triangle.
This could explain differences between Bermuda and the rest of the world’s volcanic islands that have puzzled geologists for ...
Professor YAO Huajian's research group from the School of Earth and Space Sciences of the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), in cooperation with Dr. Piero Poli from Grenoble-Alpes ...
Image: Tiny crystals called zircons are used to date oceanic crust. A newly developed method that detects tiny bits of zircon in rock reliably predicts the age of ocean crust more than 99 percent of ...
The Earth's oceanic crust covers an enormous expanse, and is mostly buried beneath a thick layer of mud that cuts it off from the surface world. Scientists now document life deep within the oceanic ...
Earth scientists have found strong evidence that the geological processes that lead to the formation of oceanic crust are not as uniformly passive as believed. They found centers of dynamic upwelling ...
