Data collected by NASA's InSight lander suggest that ancient internal processes are responsible for the "Martian dichotomy" ...

Plate tectonics give rise to Earth's mountain ranges, earthquakes and the long-term movement of continents, and may even have provided the right conditions for life on Earth. But as far as we know ...

The area is formed by the slow separation of the African, Arabian and Somali tectonic plates which are continuing ... with Mount Erta Ale being active since the 1960s, still spewing out magma ...

An earthquake expert at Kyoto University said Monday's tremor could have occurred where tectonic plates meet. Assistant Professor Yamashita Yusuke of Kyoto University's Disaster Prevention ...

The lava flow from the Erta Ale volcano reached very significant levels, filling the ancient crater and spreading to the historic camping cabins for the first time in 20 years. The Best Movies of ...

Researchers have discovered evidence suggesting that the Indian tectonic plate may be splitting apart beneath the surface, particularly in the region near Tibet. This finding has sparked discussions ...

The two plates then began sliding towards each other. As the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates converged, a slow collision became geologically inevitable. This collision presented two possible ...

Beneath their majestic peaks, the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates engage in a slow-motion collision that began 60 million years ago. This geological clash not only created the mountains but ...

Scientists analyzing seismic data from southern Tibet discovered that the Indian tectonic plate is fragmenting as it subducts beneath the Eurasian plate, reshaping our understanding of the forces ...

This flow is what drives the movement of tectonic plates on Earth’s surface, causing earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the shifting of continents. Heat from the Earth’s core causes convection ...
