Researchers simulated temperature trends and tectonic plate movement to monitor their impact on mammals. Supercomputer simulation shows that climate extremes are likely to drive land mammal extinction ...
Earthquakes and volcanism occur as a result of plate tectonics. The movement of tectonic plates themselves is largely driven by the process known as subduction. The question of how new active ...
Plate tectonics in the Pacific and Atlantic during the Cretaceous period shaped the Caribbean region

Geophysicists can use a new model to explain the behavior of a tectonic plate sinking into a subduction zone in the Earth's mantle: the plate becomes weak and thus more deformable when mineral grains ...
MIT geologists have found that a clay mineral on the seafloor, called smectite, has a surprisingly powerful ability to sequester carbon over millions of years. Under a microscope, a single grain of ...
