This initiative marks a first in the study of Atlantic subduction zones. Researchers emphasize that tectonic plates retain a 'memory' of their history, influencing mantle convection. This discovery ...

The supercontinent covered one-third of the Earth`s surface and it is modeled as an undeformable, highly viscous immobile lid with respect to the ambient mantle and it is abruptly imposed on ...

This part of the planet plays a crucial role in shaping surface features like mountains and volcanoes, and it drives plate tectonics through slow-moving convection currents. Scientists have long ...

“This collision was governed by plate tectonics and mantle convection and had profound impacts on ocean ... This circulation pattern remains fundamental to our current climate system. “The closure of ...

This paper brings together existing research spanning plate tectonics, mantle convection, topography and paleogeography, evolutionary anthropology, mammal evolution, climate evolution, and ocean ...

Plate tectonics describes the movement and interaction of tectonic plates on Earth's surface. This movement is driven by the very slow creeping motion of Earth's mantle, called convection, which ...
