In New Research, Alpine Geologist Traces the Forces Behind the Big Bend’s Dramatic Landscapes
2+ day, 16+ hour ago (521+ words) It’s a hallmark of any westering journey beyond the Pecos in Texas. As woodlands give way to plains and desert, the land itself seems to stretch, the horizons to widen. It reflects a geological reality. The American West is slowly…...
Every year Australia slides seven centimeters toward the north-northeast, almost twice the pace of a growing fingernail and quicker than any other continent. Southeast Asia is already in the way, and some models fold the plate into a new supercontinent inside 300 million years.
3+ day, 2+ hour ago (514+ words) A continent racing across the planet at twice the speed of growing fingernails is remaking the map—and threatening the region directly in its path. By Terra Daily Editorial Team · Editorial process Published September 10, 2026 Here is a number that does…...
Maximum earthquake magnitude unlikely to be controlled by subduction interface roughness | Nature Geoscience
2+ day, 21+ hour ago (1641+ words) Nature Geoscience (2026) Cite this article a, The maximum observed magnitudes from smallest to largest and their corresponding maximum interface coupling. b, Cross-plots of the two observables. The high correlation factor R2 = 0.65 for the least-squares fit demonstrates a strong, positive, linear relationship…...
Reducing earthquakes caused by fracking – Sciworthy
2+ day, 20+ hour ago (172+ words) The team used the model to compare how a site like this would respond to the instant shut-in method versus the other shut-in methods. They found that the tapered shut-in method increased pressure and stress in the rock, while the…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8812: Optimised Machine Learning for MASW-Based Zonation of Weak Alluvial Soils Using Anchor-Based SPT/SCPT Calibration
1+ week, 1+ day ago (433+ words) Weak alluvial soils are difficult to delineate where penetration-test data are sparse and stiffness varies rapidly with depth. This study presents a novel goal-attainment-optimised machine learning framework that combines multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW) with anchor-based standard penetration test…...
Ancient Underwater Volcano Discovered Alive And Covered With Up To A Million Giant Eggs
1+ week, 2+ day ago (658+ words) A team of scientists has made an astonishing discovery on an underwater volcano off the Pacific coast: it is still active, covered in giant eggs, and that’s not all. Deep beneath the Pacific Ocean, scientists have uncovered an extraordinary hidden…...
