This rendering shows a carbonate ion (red/grey) dissolved in water (pink/white) against a backdrop of a cross section of the Earth. New computer simulations show that under pressure deep in the Earth, ...
Iron-rich spherules like the ones shown here can contain chemical clues about the composition of the early Earth’s atmosphere. (UW Photo / Don Brownlee) Today, rising carbon dioxide in the atmosphere ...
A quirky material that behaves like a mishmash of liquid and solid could be hidden deep in the Earth. Computer simulations described in two studies suggest that the material in Earth’s inner core, ...
The discovery could usher in a wave of investigations into the evolution of Earth's mantle, a layer of material about 1,800 miles deep that extends from just beneath the planet's thin crust to its ...
