UC Berkeley

A machine learning breakthrough: using satellite images to improve human lives

Categories Earth, Energy & Environment, Technology

A new model by UC Berkeley seismologists proposes that Earth’s inner core grows faster on its east side (left) than on its west. Gravity equalizes the asymmetric growth by pushing iron crystals toward the north and south poles (arrows). This tends to align the long axis of iron crystals along the planet’s rotation axis (dashed line), explaining the different travel times for seismic waves through the inner core.

Is Earth’s core lopsided? Strange goings-on in our planet’s interior.

Cows rest near a cave in Yunnan, China, where horseshoe bats were found carrying a virus that closely resembles SAR-CoV-2. A new analysis finds that the expansion of concentrated livestock production in China may be creating favorable conditions for coronaviruses to jump from horseshoe bats to domesticated animals before infecting humans.
