BUTTE, Mont. — Envision this scenario: You are going about your day. All is calm and quiet until suddenly, the ground beneath your feet begins to shake, and items within your home or workspace begin ...

Researchers have mathematically elucidated how the presence of crystals and gas bubbles in magma affects the propagation of seismic P-waves. A novel equation was derived to describe the travel of ...

Mantle plumes beneath volcanic hotspots, like Hawaii, Iceland, and the Galapagos, seem to be anchored into a large structure within the core-mantle boundary (CMB). A new study, published in Science ...

Scientists successfully addressed mathematical challenges in conventional Spectral Matrix analysis, used to analyze three-component seismic signals, by introducing time-delay components. The new ...

Seismic waves from one of the most powerful earthquakes on record along the east coast of Russia rippled all the way down to Florida. A tsunami thousands of miles away was triggered by the massive ...
