Earth’s core seems to be surrounded by enigmatic layer, geologists say Jagged region sits at boundary between liquid and solid rock and might be remnants of ancient seafloor April 10, 2023 5 min ...

Usually, geologic layers build on one another, with younger rocks piling on top of older ones. A new study, however, shows ...

The height of the planetary boundary layer varies depending on the land below, but over Japan, it is between 1,000 and 3,000 meters (3,281 to 9,843 feet) above sea level, so sampling was conducted ...

Physical laws and equations of motions, which govern the planetary boundary layer dynamics and microphysics, are strongly non-linear and considerably influenced by properties of the earth's ...

It also plays a crucial role in mantle convection and the thermal evolution of the Earth, acting as a thermal and chemical boundary layer between the hot core and the cooler mantle above.

Earth is made up of several layers: the lithosphere, asthenosphere, lower mantle (also known as mesospheric mantle), outer core and inner core.

Science Space Solar System Seismologists might have identified the deepest layer of Earth’s core The so-called 'innermost inner core' could become the latest addition to geology textbooks. By ...

Earth's inner layers have just got a bit more complicated, with scientists discovering a whole new inner core within the center of the planet. Research released on February 21 in the journal ...

Water leaking from the surface of the Earth could be changing the outer rim of our planet's core and wrapping it in a layer of crystals, according to a study.

A new series of experiments has shown that the mysterious "E-prime layer," which surrounds Earth's outer core, is created by water that leaks deep into our planet's interior.

The layer is part of the asthenosphere, which sits under Earth’s tectonic plates in the upper mantle and gives needed topography, forming a relatively soft boundary that lets plates move through ...

The Earth’s interior is far more complex than what we are taught in school. Instead of just three layers- crust, mantle, and core- the Earth is made up of multiple intricate layers, each with ...
