Ocean wave intensification since the late 1980s: Each circle is a seismic station, with size proportional to the vertical acceleration of the Earth at that station smoothed over three years.

A Revolutionary Way to Study Earth’s Core. Seismic waves, traditionally generated by earthquakes, can now be detected from the movement of ocean waters caused by intense storms.The recent ...

A phase change in post-perovskite materials at the so-called D” discontinuity is also evidence for long-predicted slow, convective flows in the mantle itself ...

When waves ricochet off the coast, they send energy back toward the sea. When that energy hits incoming waves, it pushes energy downward, creating a seismic signal that can be detected.

Seismic Oceanography: The application of seismic reflection methods to image the internal structure of the ocean, enabling interpretations of temperature, salinity, and density variations.

The sea is getting angry, my friends. Waves and surf along the California coast are getting bigger and taller because of global warming, a new study released this week suggests.. In fact, winter ...

These mysterious waves, known as PKP precursors, arrive just before a type of seismic wave known as PKP waves, which travel through the Earth during an earthquake.

In 2023, scientists were baffled by a bizarre seismic signal that repeated every 90 seconds for nine days. Now, a study has confirmed the root cause of this phenomenon.

Scientists have known that seismic waves slow down when passing through ultra-low velocity zones, or ULVZs, but only knew they existed around hotspots that create volcanic island chains. Now, a ...

P-waves are the faster seismic waves, ... Previous studies estimated that there could be enough water deep underground on Mars to cover the surface in a global ocean between 0.62 to 1.24 miles ...
