Samuel’s team went beyond considerations of density, composition, and seismic velocity and looked at how the interior structure of Mars attenuated seismic waves. “From this, we were able to infer the ...

A diagram depicting how different seismic waves travel across Mars. (Image credit: Ikuo Katayama) With that in mind, Katayama and Akamatsu honed in on two transitional regions in the seismic data ...

Iran was hit by a 5.1 magnitude earthquake on Friday, five days after a 2.5 magnitude quake. The timing of these earthquakes ...

It turns out that the interior of Mars exhibits seismic waves just like the Earth, according to a new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Using seismic data ...

As tensions between Iran and Israel escalate, two recent earthquakes near Iranian nuclear facilities have sparked intense ...

Understanding the origin of this seismic wave velocity drop and attenuation at the oceanic LAB is crucial for deciphering the asthenosphere's low viscosity and how it facilitates the movement of ...

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.

According to the messages, this "Seismic Waves Card" file could purportedly "hack your phone in 10 seconds." For example, one of our readers asked the following in an email: ...

Scientists have concluded that an unprecedented global seismic signal, first noticed in September 2023, was caused by a Greenland fjord tsunami triggered by climate change.

Two Australian scientists argue in a new paper that within the Earth’s core, based on measurements of waves reverberating along the Earth’s diameter, is an innermost inner core, about 800 ...

The speed of seismic waves depends on what the rock is made of, where it has cracks and what fills the cracks," Wright said. "We combined the measured seismic wave speed, gravity measurements and ...

The difference in water content between the lithosphere and the upper layer of Earth’s mantle can explain the observed seismic changes The oceanic lithosphere, which constitutes the top layer ...
