There are at least 20 solid forms of ice known to us. Recently, 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ scientists have discovered a new form of ice, redefining the properties of water at high pressures.

Findings could have implications for our understanding of distant, water-rich planets.

Highlights from a Discussion of the Colorado River Basin and Glen Canyon Dam

A diamond inclusion has revealed a new mineral, davemaoite, as well as hints about the workings of our planet’s interior.

A virtual conference is scheduled on Monday to discuss the future of the Colorado River with some of the nation's leading scientists, Indigenous community leaders along with former and high-ranking federal officials.

Using a diamond as their vessel, tiny specks of mineral blasted upward from the Earth’s lower mantle survived a harrowing journey of hundreds of miles amid unbelievably high temperatures and colossal pressures to end up in the hands of 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ researchers.

Tree ring records show droughts worse than 2021 summer, without influence of climate change.

Scientists have found a new mineral packed in diamond more than 600 km deep in the Earth's lower mantle for the first time.

University of Nevada, Las Vegas geochemists found a mineral on the earth’s surface that’s only been found hundreds of miles below the surface in the earth’s mantle.

Until now, researchers believed davemaoite could never be found on Earth's surface.
