Studies upon the inclination of the earth's axis by Warring, Charles Bartlett, 1825-1907; Poughkeepsie Society of Natural Science. Proceedings ...

Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are among the most serious natural hazards in high mountain regions in the last several decades. The recent global warming has caused dramatic glacial lake changes ...

If you've felt a bit off-balance, you can blame your fellow humans: The pumping of groundwater caused the Earth to tilt 31.5 inches over a 17-year period, or about 1.8 inches per year. As reported ...

A shorter day on Earth In terms of time, NASA estimated that the earthquake shortened the length of a day by about 2.68 microseconds, which is less than a blink of an eye. While 2.68 microseconds ...

Earth rotates on its axis — this has an angle which determines the plane of our planet’s orbit around the sun. In one configuration, when the Northern Hemisphere is more faceup towards the sun ...

Research published in Geophysical Research Letters reveals that Earth’s tilt has shifted by 31.5 inches in less than two decades (1993–2010) due to groundwater pumping. This movement is linked ...

The axis of Planet Earth has tilted by 31.5 inches (nearly 80cm) and humans are to blame for this, according to a new study.

Earth tilted, but it had nothing to do with weird space phenomena and everything to do with how people are pumping groundwater and shipping it across the planet, a study found. The findings of a ...

Earth has therefore tilted it on its axis at a rate of about 1.7 inches (4.3 centimetres) a year, giving a total of 78.5 centimetres, during the 18-year study period.
