Why did Antarctica freeze first? A new study says rising mountains in Antarctica, lifted by deep-Earth mantle waves, helped permanent ice sheet form around 34 million years ago, long before the Arctic developed lasting ice. The discovery sheds new light on how geology and climate shaped Earth’s polar history. #Antarctica #Arctic #EarthScience #Climate #Geology

🌍 Preparations for INQUA 2027 Continue at the Highest Level The Local Organising Committee Chair, Dr. M. G. Thakkar, Director of Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeosciences (BSIP), and Dr. Binita Phartiyal, Organising General Secretary of INQUA 2027, had the honour of meeting Her Excellency Smt. Anandiben Patel, Hon’ble Governor of Uttar Pradesh, at Raj Bhavan, Lucknow. During the meeting, the delegation briefed the Hon’ble Governor on the preparations for the XXII INQUA Congress 2027, which will bring the global Quaternary science community to India for the first time in INQUA’s 100-year history. The Hon’ble Governor expressed her delight that this landmark international scientific event will be hosted in Lucknow. She warmly welcomed researchers and delegates from around the world to Uttar Pradesh’s capital, encouraging them to engage in scientific exchange while also exploring the region’s rich cultural and heritage legacy. India looks forward to welcoming the global Quaternary community to INQUA 2027. #INQUA2027 #Lucknow #India #QuaternaryScience #GlobalScience #ScientificCollaboration #EarthScience #Palaeoscience #Geoheritage #ScienceForSociety

War or not, sun shines and rain pours. And in the same spirit as the Earth, IGYM 2026 at Prayoga Institute of Education Research is preparing to welcome young Earth Science enthusiasts from across the world. While our inaugural edition last year came with the expected challenges of launching a first-of-its-kind international programme, this year presents a different reality - persisting conflicts and complex geopolitical landscape. Yet, hope remains and I-GYM 2026 continues to build bridges through science – this July, Prayoga will bring together young minds to learn, collaborate, and imagine a more sustainable future. With participants expected from countries around the world, the workshop will see five days of field learning, scientific inquiry, and meaningful exchange. Because science has power. The power to continue to bring people together, even in a divided world. The Countdown to IGYM 2026 has begun. Stay tuned. You can be a part of this event by supporting us. An initiative aligned with UN SDG  4 – Quality Education, SDG 11 – Sustainable Cities and Communities SDG 13 – Climate Action and SDG 17 – Partnerships for the Goals. #IGYM2026 #Prayoga #EarthScience #Geoscience #ScienceEducation #ClimateAction #GlobalCollaboration #YouthInScience #STEMEducation #Sustainability

🌋 New research reveals that moderate volcanic eruptions and extreme wildfires share a surprising superpower — they pump water vapor directly into the stratosphere, humidifying layers of the atmosphere far above the clouds. Unlike massive "super-eruptions," even mid-scale events can trigger this effect when combined with intense heat and smoke. This stratospheric moisture can influence global temperatures, ozone chemistry, and climate feedback loops in ways scientists are only beginning to understand. As wildfires grow more frequent due to climate change, this mechanism may play an increasingly important role in Earth's atmospheric dynamics — making it a critical area for climate modeling and long-term forecasting. #ClimateScience #Atmosphere #Volcanoes #Wildfires #EarthScience Companies in this space: Teledyne Technologies ($TDY, NYSE), Maxar Technologies ($MAXR, NYSE), Trimble ($TRMB, NASDAQ)

The ozone layer is Earth’s invisible shield. 🌍 High above us in the stratosphere, it absorbs most of the Sun’s harmful UV rays — protecting our skin, eyes, plants, oceans, and entire ecosystems. Without it, life on Earth would be far more exposed. The good news? Thanks to global action like the Montreal Protocol, the ozone layer is slowly healing. A reminder: when humanity acts together, the planet can recover. 🌱✨ #OzoneLayer #EarthScience #ClimateAction #Science #MindsMapAi

🌏 4 NEW FAULT ZONES DISCOVERED OFF WESTERN LUZON Filipino and Taiwanese researchers just mapped four previously unknown fault zones beneath the sea west of Luzon — and the implications are serious. 🔬 The Discovery Scientists from UP Diliman, UP Marine Science Institute, DOST-PHIVOLCS, and Taiwan's National Central University used high-resolution seafloor mapping and seismic profiling to study the area. What they found: four new faults branching off the main Philippine Fault Zone (PFZ) — the 1,200-km fault system responsible for some of the country's biggest historical earthquakes. ⚠️ Why It Matters One of these new branches appears to extend directly into the Manila Trench — potentially splitting it in two. The trench itself bends roughly 35 degrees as it moves south, lining up with the PFZ's direction. Beneath the region, researchers found the Earth's crust is literally tearing at depth, driven by two tectonic collisions happening at once: the Palawan Microcontinental Block pushing from the southwest, and the Philippine Rise/Benham Rise docking from the northeast. 🌊 The Risk - Greater potential for major earthquakes along western Luzon - Tsunami risk if ruptures occur near the Manila Trench - More complex seismic forecasting due to overlapping tectonic forces 📊 The study, titled "Segmentation of the Manila subduction zone and slab tearing beneath the Philippine mobile belt," was published in the Journal of Asian Earth Sciences. As the Philippines already sits on some of the most seismically active ground on Earth, how much more precise can hazard mapping realistically get — and is preparedness keeping pace with the science? #Luzon #Philippines #Earthquake #Seismology #ManilaTrench #PhilippineFaultZone #Tsunami #NaturalDisaster #Geology #DisasterPreparedness #PHIVOLCS #UPDiliman #EarthScience
