I didn’t expect the discrepancy to be so immense,” said Katharina Seeger, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of ...

On Wednesday, March 4, a study was published that showed that sea levels are much higher than scientists have previously ...

A research team led by Prof. XU Yigang from the Guangzhou Institute of Geochemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and Prof. DENG Chenglong from the CAS Institute of Geology and Geophysics ...

Researchers found that a majority of studies on coastal sea levels underestimated how high water levels are, and hundreds of millions of people are closer to peril than previously thought.

Scientists at MIT have found compelling chemical evidence that Earth’s earliest animals were likely ancient sea sponges.

Scientists compare volcanic cones on Earth and Mars to explain how gas-rich magma forms scoria cones. Spacecraft observations and Earth analog sites provide evidence of similar eruptive processes.

Earth experienced a period of intense, large-scale volcanism during the early Aptian. Around that time, it also experienced widespread ocean deoxygenation during the Oceanic Anoxic Event 1a (OAE1a) as ...

Much of our understanding of Earth's past is derived from stratigraphic records exposed in rock outcrops or recovered from drilled cores. These records span immense time intervals, from thousands to ...

The researchers believe the geraisites’ crater may lie in the São Francisco Craton, a region in the eastern part of South America’s continental crust. Future surveys are needed in order to detect ...

Helium-3 dating reveals new plankton species emerged within thousands—and sometimes just 2,000—years after the dinosaur-killing impact, showing life recovered far faster than assumed.

NASA’s Curiosity rover continues detailed observations of boxwork formations at Gale Crater while monitoring atmospheric dust as Mars enters its dusty season.

An alarming study has revealed that groundwater levels are expected to decline sharply in 65 wards of the city in the coming ...
