Volcanic plumbing dictates development of deep-sea hydrothermal vents
After years of results that repeatedly dogged him, University of Oregon geologist Douglas R. Toomey decided to follow the trail of data surfacing from the Pacific Ocean. In doing so, he and his collaborators may have altered long-held assumptions involving plate tectonics on the ocean floor. view more (2007-03-22)

Expert says nanotechnology should look to Mother Nature
Professor Richard Jones of the University of Sheffield has today outlined the possibilities of using nature's secrets to develop nanotechnology, and casts doubt on some popular assumptions about the science, including the premise that we may create nano-robots with the power to reduce the world to 'grey goo'. Professor Jones is internationally... view more... (2004-08-11)
Media invitation: Nuclear test ban spurs research into UK`s rocky foundations
The vital role UK earth scientist play in monitoring the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), and how their research is leading to a greater understanding of what the Earth is like under the British Isles, is the subject of a two-day meeting in London on the 7th and 8th of February. Sponsored by the Royal Astronomical Society and the... view more... (2002-02-03)
Better measurements reveal seasonal changes in sulfur
Researchers from the University of Maryland (UMD) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have developed a new and improved technique for the simultaneous measurement of sulfur isotopic ratios and concentrations of atmospheric sulfate using snow samples from Greenland and Kyrgyzstan. view more (2005-10-10)
Prehistoric global warming may have contributed to fossil preservation
Prehistoric global warming episodes from massive atmospheric pollution involving carbon dioxide and methane could have created and preserved "mass kills" of wildlife, according to a University of Oregon study presented at the Geological Society of America's annual meeting. view more (2005-10-13)
Icy AMORE on the volcanoes of the Northern Polar Sea
The polar research vessels RV Polarstern and USCGC Healy returned after a ten week successful expedition to the high arctic regions. Together with the new US Coast Guard icebreaker, the USCGC Healy, the Polarstern, run by the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Sea Research (AWI) explored the Gakkel Ridge, the most northerly extension of the... view more...
