What is the chemical composition of the Earth’s interior? Because it is impossible to drill more than about ten kilometres deep into the Earth, volcanic rocks formed by melting Earth’s deep interior ...

There may be hidden layers to Earth’s core dictated by chemical composition. In A Nutshell Lab experiments suggest Earth’s ...

Deep beneath our feet, far beyond the reach of any drill, new research suggests that Earth’s center is far more intricate ...

Scientists have discovered that the evolution of land plants caused a sudden shift in the composition of Earth's continents. Scientists at the University of Southampton have discovered that the ...

A new study involving an international team of researchers has found that the evolution of land plants caused a sudden shift in the composition of Earth's continents. The discovery was made by linking ...

For generations, scientists have probed the structure and composition of the planet using seismic wave studies. This consists of measuring shock waves caused by earthquakes as they penetrate and pass ...

Cosmochemists now present the most comprehensive comparison to date of the isotopic composition of Earth, Mars and pristine building material from the inner and outer Solar System. Earth and Mars were ...

In recent research published by myself and my colleague Tony Yeates in the journal Tectonophysics, we investigate what we believe – based on many years of experience in asteroid impact research – is ...
