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...

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...

Gargantuan Waves in Earth’s Mantle May Cause Continental Uplift, New Study Reveals
New research has unveiled that enormous waves within Earth's mantle are instrumental in forming high plateaus and dramatic cliff formations. This study explores how the rifting of continents triggers these mantle waves, which then propagate inward and lead to the rise of plateaus. By analyzing escarpments formed during the breakup of Gondwana, scie...
