New research overturns that view, revealing that a dense slab of mantle rock actually wedges between India’s and Asia’s crusts beneath the range. This “mantle sandwich” better explains seismic data and how the mountains remain so stable while r...

Ancient Greenland Rocks Found in Iceland Sheds Light on Late Antique Ice Age
A 2025 study led by geologists Christopher Spencer, Ross Mitchell, and Thomas Gernon identifies ancient Greenland rocks embedded in Icelandic cliffs. These rocks, transported by icebergs over 1500 years ago, confirm glacial expansion during the Late Antique Little Ice Age (LALIA). The findings shed light on past climate anomalies and serve as cruci...

Volcanic Activity in Yellowstone Is Shifting in the Northeast Direction, Study Finds
Recent findings reveal that volcanic activity within Yellowstone Caldera is shifting northeast. Using magnetotelluric surveys, geologists from the US Geological Survey, Oregon State University, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison identified several magma reservoirs at depths of 4 to 47 kilometers. The study found that the northeast region holds...
