Deep Earth May Hold an Ocean Earth's deep interior, more than 1,000 kilometers below the surface in the mantle, could prove to be a watery place. That's the conclusion researchers drew from an anomaly uncovered by the first global map of Earth's lower mantle, using a new type of seismic analysis. mark for My Articles 118 similar articles

A Comment on... Volcanoes in a Changing Global Climate It is highly speculative at present to predict how global climate change will transform the science of volcanology. Yet it is important that we begin to anticipate how the impacts of volcanoes will change, as population and precipitation patterns adjust to climate change during the 21st century. mark for My Articles 171 similar articles

Scientists Clash Over Methane Mystery The startling claim that trees could be responsible for putting millions of tons of methane into the atmosphere every year was published last year in the prestigious journal Nature. But that has now been rubbished by rival researchers who report that plants emit virtually no methane whatsoever. mark for My Articles 118 similar articles

Exploring Karst in Guilin, China On first arriving in Guilin, China, you may feel like you have stumbled into J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth. Guilin, however, is no trick of a novelist's imagination. Its more than 5,180 square kilometers of karst landscape is the result of a perfect alchemy of geological conditions. mark for My Articles 2 similar articles
