The Earth’s interior is far more complex than what we are taught in school. Instead of just three layers- crust, mantle, and ...

When plumes of magma well up through Earth's lithosphere, they create volcanoes, islands, seamounts, and other features on ...

Cratons are believed to be the longest-lived regions of the Earth, but a new study shows how dynamic processes can cause their eventual disintegration.

It now also includes an exploration of the role of flexure in landscape evolution and dynamic topography and discussions of lithosphere memory, inheritance, and new NASA mission topography and gravity ...

One discovery that ought to be on everyone's rundown is plate tectonics - the description of how the rigid outer shell of our planet (its lithosphere) moves and is recycled. The theory celebrates ...

Volcanic eruptions can spill lava on these planetary surfaces. But landforms can also be created when the lithosphere, which consists of the crust and the relatively brittle upper layer of the ...

Aa Aa Aa Biogeochemical cycles describe pathways by which chemical elements move through both biotic (the biosphere) and abiotic compartments (the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere ...
