Scientists proposed a new economic strategy to distribute global rare earth element reserves more sustainably.

Scientists modeled forest productivity before and after wildfires. They found that plant regrowth depended on the type of biome and how much…

Geologists found chemical ratios in ancient minerals that suggested Earth had freshwater 550 million years after it formed.

Scientists created a strong, highly porous solid that can clean up oil spills using sustainable and reusable materials.

Researchers modeled groundwater temperature trends from 2000 to 2100. They estimated that groundwater could warm by up to 3.5°C over the…

Scientists used an Earth system model to test how radiation from a nearby supernova would affect life on our planet. They found that the…

Geologists studied gas fluxes from groundwater springs uncovered by melting Arctic glaciers. They estimated that these springs release over…

Geologists dated a global warming event about 180 million years ago. They found it lasted between 169,000 and 417,000 years and was linked…

Scientists used an exploration approach developed by the oil industry to track down geothermal energy sources.

Researchers showed that methane-eating bacteria acidify their surroundings and dissolve carbonate rocks on the seafloor.
