East Antarctic tectonic basin structure and its implications for ice-sheet modeling and sea-level projections - Communications Earth & Environment (via nature.com)

Upper-mantle earthquakes beneath East Antarctica

A Science paper focuses on upper-mantle earthquakes beneath East Antarctica.
The available source confirms the title, issue, pages, and May 2026 publication date.
The topic signals growing attention to deep-earth processes in Antarctica.

Earth’s magnetic field is thought to be generated largely by an ocean of superheated, swirling liquid iron that makes up Earth’s outer core. That activity generates electric currents and thus the continuously changing electromagnetic field. Courtesy SA/AOES Medialab

ESA’s Swarm Satellites Spot a Surprising Reversal Deep in Earth’s Outer Core

Swarm data show a large-scale flow reversal in Earth’s outer core beneath the Pacific.
The motion changed from westward to eastward around 2010 and is accelerating.
Researchers now want to know whether the shift is temporary or part of a deeper pattern.

Study in Science points to structural barriers behind repeatable earthquake cycles on oceanic faults

A Science paper links predictable seismic cycles to structural rupture barriers on oceanic transform faults.
The claim suggests fault geometry and structure may regulate how ruptures recur.
The supplied source material does not include the abstract or methods, so the article stays close to the publication metadata.

Freshwater Reserve Found Beneath Great Salt Lake Could Rival the Lake Itself

Researchers mapped a freshwater body beneath Great Salt Lake using airborne electromagnetic surveys.
The reservoir may span an area as large as, or larger than, the lake itself.
The finding could reshape understanding of groundwater flow and water storage in the basin.

Earth’s Spin Is Slowing at a Pace Not Seen in Millions of Years—and You Can Guess Why

Earth's Rotation Is Slowing at an Unprecedented Rate Because of Rising Oceans

Climate-driven ice melt is redistributing mass to the oceans, slowing Earth's rotation at rates the study calls 'almost unprecedented' in the geological record
The physics follows conservation of angular momentum—mass moving to lower latitudes increases Earth's moment of inertia and reduces rotation speed
Longer days have practical implications for global timekeeping systems like GPS that depend on precise knowledge of Earth's rotation rate

Listen to Earth’s rumbling, secret soundtrack

Scientists Decode Earth's Hidden Acoustic Soundtrack

Researchers shifted Earth's infrasonic vibrations into audible range, revealing a hidden planetary soundtrack
Planet's hum oscillates at 2.9-4.5 millihertz — 10,000 times below human hearing
Audio reveals seasonal patterns, storm signatures, and even COVID-19 lockdown effects
Project bridges geophysics and public engagement, with museums creating immersive listening exhibits
