Iceland Plume Discovery Reveals Ancient Volcanic Funnels Across North Atlantic
Sixty million years ago, Iceland’s deep plume fueled massive eruptions across the North Atlantic. Cambridge scientists discovered hidden weak zones in Earth’s crust that funneled the plume’s heat, explaining volcanic fields like the Giant’s Causeway. These ancient scars still shape today’s earthquakes and geothermal energy across Britain ...

Swarm of 130 Earthquakes Rattles One of Iceland's Largest Volcanoes, Signal Possible Eruption Risk
Over 130 earthquakes struck Iceland’s Bárðarbunga volcano within hours on January 14, including a significant 5.1 magnitude quake. The Bárðarbunga system, Iceland's largest volcanic zone, has a history of major eruptions, with the 2014–2015 event producing a lava field larger than Manhattan. Experts at the Icelandic Meteorological Office ar...

NASA and ISRO Join Forces for NISAR Satellite Launch in 2025 to Track Earth’s Changing Surface
The NISAR satellite, a joint NASA-ISRO Earth observation mission launching in 2025, will provide precise data on shifts in Earth’s surface, focusing on high-risk areas. Using advanced radar technology, the satellite aims to support natural disaster response and infrastructure monitoring by tracking subtle movements in regions prone to earthquakes...

Study Reveals Ultra-Low Velocity Zones May Be More Common in Earth's Mantle Than Previously Thought
A new study published in AGU Advances has unveiled intriguing findings about ultra-low velocity zones (ULVZs) in Earth's mantle, suggesting these mysterious features might be more widespread than previously thought.ULVZs, which are known to dramatically slow seismic waves by up to 50%, have long been associated with volcanic hotspots such as Hawaii...
