Indonesia's recent volcanic eruptions are part of natural tectonic processes and not linked to global warming, say experts. Enhanced media visibility may be creating a perception of increased activity ...

Subduction zones, where one tectonic plate dives underneath another, drive the world's most devastating earthquakes and tsunamis. How do these danger zones come to be? A study in Geology presents ...

Scientists had determined that ocean acidification enters this danger zone or crosses this planetary boundary when the amount of calcium carbonate—which allows marine organisms to develop shells ...

Far beneath the ocean's surface, where mountain belts rise and ancient oceanic crust lies hidden, a long-lost tectonic plate ...

Explore the Pacific Ring of Fire, a seismically active region around the Pacific Ocean known for earthquakes and volcanoes.

A new assessment finds that the world’s oceans crossed the safe threshold for acidification in 2020, breaching a key planetary boundary and posing serious threats to marine life. Ocean ...

Ocean acidity levels became intolerable and led to more than half of all marine life dying out. 66 million years later, it’s happening again. This time, there is no asteroid—just us humans.

The ocean surface boundary layer (OSBL) is a dynamic region that mediates the exchange of momentum, heat, and gases between the atmosphere and the ocean. Recent advances in observational and ...

The widely used analytical formula for the barrel-plate capacitance in the physics-based via circuit model involves an infinite summation, which requires a truncation during practical computations.

As the United Nations Ocean Conference opened this week in Nice, France, a major scientific report revealed that one of Earth’s planetary boundaries—ocean acidification—has already been crossed. The ...
