New findings provide a greater understanding of plate subduction, or how tectonic plates slide beneath one another. This recycling of surface materials and volatile elements deep into the Earth's ...

Plate tectonics then fell into a continuous, self-sustaining pattern. "This discovery completely changes our understanding of Earth's earliest geological processes," says Professor Turner.

Researchers have discovered that the underside of the North American continent is dripping away in blobs of rock—and that the remnants of a tectonic plate sinking in Earth's mantle may be the ...

The world's highest mountain range - the Himalayas - is a testament to the power of plate tectonics. Forced upwards by the gradual northward push of the Indian plate into the Eurasian plate.

Scientists have recently found new seismic data that shows that the Indian tectonic plate isn’t just sliding under the Eurasian plate as once believed, it’s actually splitting in two deep ...

The discovery highlights the significant role of lithospheric structures in influencing tectonic plate movement and suggests microcontinents are more common than previously believed. A major ...
