Earth’s inner core is changing shape, scientists have found.
These bodies of water contain 97 percent of Earth's volcanoes and the mid-ocean ridge, a massive mountain range more than 40,000 miles long. Earth's crust and upper mantle are divided into massive ...
Scientists have now retrieved the longest such documentation — an ice core nearly 2 miles long that captures about 1.2 million years of climate information. This record can help us better understand ...
