In an analysis of the past 1.2 million years, UC Santa Barbara geologist Lorraine Lisiecki discovered a pattern that connects the regular changes of the Earth's orbital cycle to changes in the Earth's ...
(A–B) Locations of mapped dune fields on (A) Earth and (B) Mars. (C–D) Examples of mapping and interaction identification on (C) linear dunes in Tanami Desert, Australia, and (D) crescentic dunes at ...
Despite its dry, dusty surface and thinner atmosphere, Mars may have more in common with Earth than scientists previously thought. In a new study, researchers at the University of Rochester—including ...
A groundbreaking discovery has revealed that Mars’ surface shares striking similarities with Earth’s coldest regions. Published in the journal Icarus, new research by scientists at the University of ...
A river of molten iron, more than 2,000 kilometers below the surface, appears to have pulled off something Earth scientists ...
Scientists have identified a hidden deep-Earth pattern that may reveal where rare earth deposits form. The study links ...
New research published in the journal Geoscience Frontiers highlights the cyclic patterns of geologic activity on Earth. Scientists from New York University report findings from an analysis of major ...
Scientists have discovered a new, persistent pattern in Earth's inner radiation belt using data from the twin NASA Van Allen Probes spacecraft. Most surprisingly, the pattern is produced by the slow ...
Researchers have analyzed the shifting patterns of entire dune fields on Earth and Mars, as seen from orbit, and found they are a direct signature of recent environmental change. This new tool can be ...
