Deep inside Earth, researchers see signs that the solid inner core may be arranged in multiple chemical layers far below.

Deep beneath our feet, far beyond the reach of drills or submersibles, Earth hides a solid metal heart that behaves in ways geophysicists have struggled to explain. New experiments now suggest that a ...

While most of us take the ground beneath our feet for granted, written within its complex layers, like the pages of a book, is Earth's history. Our history. Research shows there are little-known ...

Two enormous structures that sit at the border between the Earth’s mantle and its core have puzzled scientists for decades, defying reigning theories of how our planet came to be. In a new study ...

Water behaves 100,000 times better electrically in ultrathin channels, transforming chemistry in cells and advanced materials ...

A team of geophysicists say that an enormous mass shifted deep beneath the Earth’s surface 18 years ago. As detailed in a paper published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters last month, a team ...
