The gravity 'hole' that reveals 70 million years of Earth's internal history
A study reveals how a large gravitational anomaly under Antarctica has changed over 70 million years due to movements in the Earth's mantle.
Scientists to Al Jazeera Net: 'Hidden' Structures Deep in the Earth Changing its Magnetic Field
A research team led by the University of Liverpool has found magnetic evidence that two massive, extremely hot rock formations at the Earth's mantle's base are affecting the planet's magnetic field.
An unknown type of earthquake has been mapped in the depths of the Earth
Stanford scientists have created the first comprehensive global map of an unusual type of earthquake that originates deep within the Earth's mantle rather than the crust.
A new world map reveals rare earthquakes deep within the Earth

Scientists Drill a Record Hole in the Ocean Floor and Knock on the Door of the Earth's Mantle
An international team of scientists has achieved a remarkable feat by bringing to the surface a rock piece over a kilometer long directly from the Earth's mantle beneath the Atlantic Ocean.
Water in a 'strange physical state' hiding deep within the Earth for millions of years
A recent study reveals that water stored in deep Earth layers may exist in a strange physical state that allows it to remain intact for billions of years near the mantle's base, challenging previous assumptions about its disappearance.
