Mysterious Structures Discovered Beneath Earth May Explain Why Our Planet Supports Life
A Rutgers researcher and collaborators have linked unusual geological anomalies to Earth’s molten origins and its unique habitability. For many years, researchers have struggled to understand two enormous and puzzling formations hidden deep within Earth. Their immense size and unusual traits make them difficult to reconcile with traditional ideas about how the planet developed. A [...]
Giant hidden heat blob slowly travels beneath the U. S.
An immense pocket of hot rock deep beneath the Appalachians may be a wandering relic of the breakup between Greenland and North America 80 million years ago. Researchers suggest this slow-moving "mantle wave" drifted over 1,800 km to reach its current position, gradually reshaping the continent from below and even helping prop up the Appalachian Mountains long after tectonic activity at the surface ceased.
Earth Scientists Uncover the Mystery Behind Intriguing Structures in the Mantle
For many years, researchers have been intrigued by two massive structures hidden deep beneath the Earth’s surface. These anomalies might possess geochemical characteristics that differ from the surrounding mantle, yet their source remains unclear. Geodynamicist Yoshinori Miyazaki from Rutgers University and his team offer an unexpected explanation regarding these anomalies and their significance in influencing [...] The post Earth Scientists Unc…
Geoscientists Find Explanation for Mysterious Structures within Earth’s Mantle
Two enormous structures buried deep inside Earth may retain geochemical signatures distinct from the surrounding mantle. The post Geoscientists Find Explanation for Mysterious Structures within Earth’s Mantle appeared first on Sci.News: Breaking Science News.
Two hidden continents above Earth’s core may be relics of a primordial magma ocean
Deep beneath your feet, far beyond where any drill can reach, something strange is hiding. Two continent-sized blobs of rock sit just above Earth’s core, hot, dense and stubbornly different from everything around them. For decades, they have refused to fit simple stories about how the planet formed. A new study in Nature Geoscience, led by Rutgers University geodynamicist Yoshinori Miyazaki with colleagues including Jie Deng of Princeton Univers…
