The Mohole: Earth'S Crust: Dr J. Tuzo Wilson, University of Toronto, talks with host Dr Donald Ivey about nature of earth's core beneath its crust and ways scientists have of finding out about it.
The classic view of mountain formation is that they are created by seismic activity in Earth's crust, with the large tectonic plates that form the crust rubbing against one another and causing a rapid (in geological terms) rise of rock from the baseline level at this junction. While this do...
crust of the old thought held from year to year grows more thickly over it. It wants to live on and on in the house it has inhabited for years; dress in the fashion of the past; go to business and return year in and year out at precisely the same hour. It ...
The heat within the Earth, along with gravity, is what drives convection in the mantle of the Earth. The rocks of the mantle undergo differentiation with the lighter minerals rising to the top and forming the crust. The lithosphere (crust and uppermost mantle) is broken up into plates that ...
This pizza oven not only makes pizzas quickly — in under two minutes — but you can also get that perfect char on the crust and perfect bake that is usually only possible at a pizza place. Even better, it weighs only 20 pounds, making it extremely portable. Although there is a Koda ...
A major question comes into the picture from where these heavy metals or contaminants come in baby foods. The most critical area of entry of these impurities is the environment. There are various elements present in the earth’s crust, and they are released in nature in large volumes through...

Scientists have known this powerful clean fuel existed within the Earth's crust for decades. Frank Zwaan 00:07:57 What is new is the realization that it might be around in larger quantities that we can use for energy in mountain ranges. So think about the Pyrenees and the Alps and the...
Shoulder cuts are marinated in a mixof honey, soy sauce, rice wine, cinnamon, star anise and Sichuan peppercorn, then roasted vertically on metal forks. The result, a charred and sweet crust around perfectly tender pork where sweetness is lifted by the searing heat of the flames. Thousands o...
