Large flat surfaces carved by ancient rivers deep beneath the East Antarctica are influencing how ice flows across the ...

Researchers have modeled sea level changes on thousand-year timescales for the past 540 million years. These insights offer better tools for mapping subsurface layers used in energy and waste storage.

Scientists reconstructed 540 million years of sea level changes, showing Earth's oceans rose and fell by hundreds of feet ...

Sea level on Earth has been rising and falling ever since there was water on the planet. Scientists were already able to use ...

This unified plate boundary system, now believed to have lasted over 150 million years, included Pontus as its central feature. Geographic (A) and tectonic (B) maps of the Philippine Sea Plate region.

Beneath the thick ice of East Antarctica lies a hidden world—untouched for over 34 million years. This frozen expanse, more than 10 million square kilometers wide, has long concealed a forgotten ...

Melting glaciers in North America 10,000 years ago may have given continental drift a bit of a push. Similar activity in Greenland now could eventually trigger volcanic eruptions in Iceland.

Between 15 million and 6 million years ago, a drop in ocean crust production may have lowered sea level by 26–32 meters.
