The long-pondered mysterious depression spot in the Indian Ocean that experiences less gravity than the rest of the planet is likely due to large plumes of magma under the Earth’s crust, scientists ...

Astronauts can lose as much as 10% of bone density during six months in space, according to NASA, because there's no gravity for their body to push against. To offset the effect, they exercise for two ...

Silicic calderas form during explosive volcanic eruptions when magma withdrawal triggers collapse along bounding faults. The nature of specific interactions between magmatism and tectonism in ...

THE point raised by Mr. Cumming in last week's NATURE (vol. xxxvii. p. 584), as to the use of the words density and specific gravity is, it seems to me, of some importance. For many years past I have, ...
