During the Campi Flegrei caldera unrest from 2000 to 2023, the upper crust had a quasi-elastic behavior and there was a parabolic increase of ground uplift and a superexponential increase in the number of earthquakes and seismic energy release.

Austin Routt explains how capacitively coupled resistivity can probe near-surface structures in highly resistive frozen ground.

The deadly earthquake led to unexpectedly large deformations some 700 kilometres from the epicentre.

Model suggests a massive uplift partly explains the peak’s impressive height.

Researchers have spent decades hunting for clues about the origins of the process that moves the continents around. Its deep history is finally starting to come into focus.

Kilometre-long rock cores leave scientists wanting to know more — just when an international exploration effort is coming to an end.

The switch to a low-carbon economy is heavily reliant on mining, geothermal energy and geological storage. Subsurface geoscientists are critically needed to responsibly source, manage and refine these operations while minimizing environmental and social impacts.
