The large body mass of these animals may help them detect P-waves (primary seismic waves) that travel through the ground before the more destructive S-waves that cause major shaking. Additionally, ...
Enlarged section: At the D layer, perovskite changes to post-perovskite. The researchers assumed that this change explained the strange acceleration of the seismic waves. But that was not the full ...

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.
There are actually many types of seismic core phases that traverse a specific ray path. For example, PcP waves begin as a primary wave (P-wave) and deflect at the CMB and return as a P-wave.
An immense reservoir of liquid water may reside deep under the surface of Mars within fractured igneous rocks, holding enough to fill an ocean that would cover the entire surface of Earth's ...
