During the devastating magnitude 7.7 Myanmar earthquake on March 28 this year, a CCTV camera captured the moment the plate ...

To create the map, the team combined three geological models: a plate model based on already known plate boundaries, a province model based on the geology of of Earth's surface, and an orogeny ...

The findings of a new study on a plate tectonics model could help better understand the factors driving earthquakes, the formation of mountains and the rifting of continents, the researchers said. ...

“Plate tectonics 2.0 is a model of Earth evolution that includes not just oceanic plates but includes the continental plates,” Becker says.

New tectonic plate model shows how Earth was organized as a supercontinent 2.8 million years ago: ... 'Whereas others consider that plate tectonics appeared abruptly some one billion years ago.

Around the globe, researchers are doubling down. New research uncovers major issue with tsunami warning systems: 'It's not a ...

The video isn't just a novelty. The University of Sydney said the ability to model plate tectonics like this will help scientists understand not just the physical movement of the plates, but also ...

The model shows one possible scenario for the origins of plate tectonics, but it lacks a mechanism for creating new lithosphere, as happens at the rift in the middle of the Atlantic, says ...

The research provides chemical evidence that plate tectonics was most likely occurring more than 4.2 billion years ago when life is thought to have first formed on our planet.
