Some molten hot news about the Earth's core is coming out of the UofAlabama!
Through global-scale seismic imaging of Earth’s interior, research led by The University of Alabama has revealed a layer between the core and the mantle that is likely a dense, yet thin, sunk ocean floor.
“We are finding that this structure is vastly more complicated than once thought,” said UA geological sciences professor Dr. Samantha Hansen, one of the research paper’s co-authors. For example, the research found variations of the layers’ thickness “from a few kilometers to 10′s of kilometers,” said co-author Dr. Edward Garnero from Arizon State University. One kilometer is roughly .62 of a mile.
