Crystals may help reveal hidden Kilauea Volcano behavior

Researchers used millimeter-sized crystals from the 1959 eruption of Hawaii’s Kilauea Volcano to test models that offer insights about flow conditions prior to and during an eruption.

Pollution from cooking remains in atmosphere for longer

Particulate emissions from cooking stay in the atmosphere for longer than previously thought, making a prolonged contribution to poor air quality and human health, according to a new study.

Transportation of water into the deep Earth by Al-phase D

Researchers have recently measured the propagation speed of ultrasonic waves in an aluminum-rich hydrous mineral called Al-phase D at pressure conditions relevant to the Earth’s deep mantle. Their results suggest that seismic shear anomalies observed locally beneath subduction zones may reveal the presence of hydrous minerals in the uppermost lower mantle, which would have important Transportation of water into the deep Earth by Al-phase D

Cluster of Alaskan islands could be single, interconnected giant volcano

A small group of volcanic islands in Alaska’s Aleutian chain might be part of a single, undiscovered giant volcano, say scientists. If the researchers’ suspicions are correct, the newfound volcanic caldera would belong to the same category of volcanoes as the Yellowstone Caldera and other volcanoes that have had super-eruptions with severe global consequences.

Seismic activity of New Zealand’s alpine fault more complex than suspected

New evidence of a 19th century earthquake on New Zealand’s Alpine fault suggests that in at least one portion of the fault, smaller earthquakes may occur in between such large rupture events.

What will the climate be like when Earth’s next supercontinent forms?

In roughly 200 million years, the continents will once again unite into a supercontinent. A new study explores how the next Pangea could affect the global climate.
