Iran’s Folded Rocks Reveal Ancient Tectonic Power at Asia-Europe Boundary
Iran’s Zagros Mountains showcase tightly folded rock layers caused by the slow-motion collision of the Arabian and Eurasian plates. Visible from space, these dramatic geological structures reveal the raw power of continental tectonics and provide scientists with valuable insights into mountain formation, seismic activity, and Earth’s ongoing st...

Geodynamic Mantle-Flow Model Reveals Erosion Process of North China Craton
New research from China University of Geosciences unveils how tectonic shifts eroded the once-stable North China Craton. Led by Professor Shaofeng Liu, this study explores flat-slab subduction processes, revealing three stages of deformation due to the ancient Izanagi plate’s horizontal movement beneath the Eurasian plate. This breakthrough redef...
