D heat maps show how deep temperature patterns under Greenland help explain uneven ice loss and land motion, improving future ...

Understanding what happens beneath Greenland helps explain how its vast ice sheet moves, melts, and reshapes the planet. A ...

New evidence indicates that the deepest realm of the mantle flowed with up to 100 times more water than previously believed.

Heat transport in deep Earth controls its thermal evolution. Determination of the thermal conductivity of the lower mantle is one of the central issues for a better understanding of deep Earth ...

A deep heat mass beneath the Appalachians appears to have started near a rift between Greenland and North America. Its slow southward journey reveals that ancient tectonic events still influence the ...

SANTA CRUZ, CA–For the first time, scientists have directly measured the amount of heat flowing from the molten metal of Earth’s core into a region at the base of the mantle, a process that helps ...

When the early Earth’s magma ocean crystallized 4.4 billion years ago, the deep mantle trapped an ocean’s worth of water, ...

Far below the oceans and continents we know, Earth’s deep mantle appears to have stored far more water in its early history ...

The proportion of deep-sourced helium and the temperature of the mineralising fluids appear to correspond to the size of the ...

Unlike flawless gems, fibrous diamonds often contain small saline inclusions. These give hints to scientists about the conditions under which diamonds are formed deep in the Earth's mantle. A research ...
