Scientists discover molten layer covering Martian core

Researchers used seismic data to locate and identify a thin layer of molten silicates overlying Mars' metallic core. The discovery reveals a denser and smaller Martian core, aligning with other geophysical data and analysis of Martian meteorites. This finding provides new insights into how Mars formed, evolved, and became a barren planet.

Signals from the ionosphere could improve tsunami forecasts

Researchers from the University of Washington analyzed the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai eruption in the South Pacific, discovering that ionosphere signals can help explain why tsunami waves grew larger and traveled faster than predicted. The study validated the use of GPS signals traveling through the atmosphere to track events on the gro...

Huge tsunami hit Oman 1,000 years ago

A recent study by University of Bonn researchers suggests that a massive tsunami struck the coast of Oman around 1,000 years ago, with waves reaching up to 15 meters high. The findings emphasize the importance of developing an effective early warning system for the region to mitigate devastating consequences.

Wave beams mix and stir the ocean to create climate

Researchers propose a new theory on how waves mix and stir the ocean, bringing cold water to the surface. The study explains how internal waves direct themselves based on topography, shedding light on climate-dependent ocean circulation patterns.

How to monitor global ocean warming -- without harming whales

Researchers have developed a new method to track ocean temperature changes using internal tidal waves, which can be detected through satellite data. This approach is cheaper and more reliable than existing methods, allowing for long-term monitoring of ocean warming without harming marine mammals.

A model for predicting coastal storm damage in the North Sea

Researchers developed a system to predict storm damage by waves in the North Sea, focusing on densely populated areas. The model simulates waves and tidal currents, indicating interactions between waves from different directions play a fundamental role in wave climate.

Warning signs from ancient Greek tsunami

New research from Aachen University suggests the Possidi peninsula in northern Greece is at risk of significant tsunami waves due to its proximity to earthquake-prone areas. The study also highlights the need for updated tsunami hazard calculations, particularly in densely populated and tourist regions.

Tides, Earth's rotation among sources of giant underwater waves

Large amplitude internal waves can reach heights of 150 meters in the South China Sea, affecting surface wave fields and observable from space. The Earth's rotation modifies these waves as they travel across the deep ocean basin, influencing their steepening process.

Coastlines could be protected by invisibility cloak

Scientists at the University of Liverpool have developed a metamaterial structure that guides water through concentric corridors, reducing wave overtopping and damage to coastal defenses. The 'invisibility cloak' technology shows promise in protecting land from natural disasters such as tsunamis.

Safer shipping by predicting sand wave behavior

Dutch researcher Joris van den Berg developed a mathematical model to predict sand wave movement, improving safety for shipping and offshore infrastructure. The model simplified equations, enabling quick predictions of interventions like dredging and potentially unlocking studies on sand waves and banks.

AGU journal highlights - 31 March 2006

Research papers predict increased solar flares and storms due to enhanced solar radiation. The Antarctic Circumpolar Current is expected to strengthen with climate change induced by increasing greenhouse gases. Deep atmospheric convection enhances natural greenhouse gas feedbacks, leading to an amplified positive water vapor effect.

Internal waves appear to have the muscle to pump up mid-lats

Researchers have calculated that internal waves can carry up to 50% of their original energy as they propagate through the ocean depths, with this energy directed towards mid-latitude areas. This finding has significant implications for understanding ocean mixing and its impact on global climate models.

Hawaiian Ridge HOME to efforts to understand deep-ocean mixing

Scientists discover that internal waves generated by the moon's pull at the Hawaiian Ridge can mix ocean waters at rates up to 1,000 times more intense than in areas without such topography. The measurements provide new insights into the global ocean circulation and nutrient cycles.

New rare dinosaur tracksite found in northern Wyoming

The discovery of a 170-million-year-old dinosaur tracksite in the Gypsum Spring Formation sheds light on the geographic distribution of dinosaurs during the Middle Jurassic period. The site preserves evidence that some dinosaurs may have been swimmers, with estimated speeds of up to 9.2 kilometers per hour.
