Crustal deformation can be defined as bending, tilting, and breaking the Earth's crust. It involves the changes on the Earth's crust, thus changing the Earth's surface due to tectonic forces. There are two types of crustal deformation include elastic deformation and ductile deformation. Elastic...
Recently, our scientists have begun digging a really (66) deep hole down to the center of the Earth in Xinjiang, hoping to learn what is happening inside the planet. It is said that the hole will be 10 km (67) deep when completed. That means the drill wi
Mariana Trench deepest part of the ocean plate Techtonics a theory explaining the structure of the earth's crust and many associated phenomena as resulting from the interaction of rigid lithospheric plates that move slowly over the underlying mantle. deep ocean trench a deep valley along the ocean...

whereas helium from deep within Earth is richer in helium-3, likely from reservoirs of ancient material preserving the original ratio found between these isotopes during Earth’s first days. The researchers discovered hot hotspots possessed a much higher ratio of helium-3 to helium-4 than cold...
How many times has sulfur been recycled between the Earth's crust and mantle over geological time? We do not currently know the answer to this but our research paints a picture of the Earth as a global element conveyor belt with surface sulfur and mantle closely linked. ...
shocks of magnitude 6.4 and 7.1 a day apart struck near Ridgecrest, CA, between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. For local residents, it was a violent interruption to the Fourth of July holiday. For seismologists, it was a rare opportunity to study how earthquakes damage the Earth’s crust. ...
