In some parts of Earth's interior, seismic waves travel at different speeds depending on the direction in which they are ...

Earth’s interior remains one of the most enigmatic realms of science, with its deepest regions yet to fully reveal their secrets. Recent research published in Geochemistry, Geophysics, takes a closer ...

Mars has had its first CT scan, thanks to analyses of seismic waves picked up by NASA’s InSight lander. Diagnosis: The Red Planet’s core is at least partially liquid, as some previous studies had ...

As oceans waves rise and fall, they apply forces to the sea floor below and generate seismic waves. These seismic waves are so powerful and widespread that they show up as a steady thrum on ...

Seismological research is directly related to the incubation, occurrence, and evolution of earthquakes. Scientists seek to reveal potential earthquake precursors by monitoring the stress state of ...

A research team led by Prof. ZHANG Haijiang from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Prof. HOU Zengqian from Chinese Academy of Geological ...

An earthquake generates a series of seismic waves that travel through the interior or near the surface of the Earth. There are four types of seismic waves. How will three identically engineered ...

Scientists have been left somewhat bemused by seismic waves traveling around the world, because no one is completely sure what caused them. The rest of this article is behind a paywall. Please sign in ...

A tsunami stemming from a landslide in a Greenland fjord, caused by melting ice, was behind a surprising seismic event last year that shook the earth for nine days, a researcher told AFP on Friday.
