The consequences of a magnitude-7.8 earthquake that struck New Zealand on Nov. 14, 2016, are still rippling through the country. The quake, which killed two people and caused billions of dollars of damage, ruptured a complex set of geological faults near the surface. It also triggered slow-motion movement as deep as 40 kilometers in Earth's crust, some of which continues to this day, scientists report. That deep "slow slip" is worrying, because it adds to the risk of another big quake.

A U.K.-led team of scientists is rolling out a project to monitor every land volcano on Earth from space.
Two satellites will routinely map the planet's surface, looking for signs that might hint at a future eruption.
They will watch for changes in the shape of the ground below them, enabling scientists to issue an early alert if a volcano appears restless.

The surface of the remote Antarctic ice sheet may be a far more dynamic place than scientists imagined, new research suggests. Decades of satellite imagery and aerial photography have revealed an extensive network of lakes and rivers transporting liquid meltwater across the continent's ice shelves — nearly 700 systems of connected pools and streams in total.

Palaeontologists are fighting to save a site in China that contains fossils of some of the earliest animals on record. This month they gained a temporary halt to the phosphate mining that has already destroyed some fossil beds.
The threatened site is part of the Doushantuo geological formation in the Weng'an region of Guizhou province in Southern China.

A powerful surge of lava erupting from Hawaii's Kilauea Iki crater uncovered rock samples that could date back to Earth's birth.
Analysis of two rock samples from volcanic eruptions in Hawaii and Samoa by geologists from the University of Maryland have revealed unexpected geochemical anomalies indicative of conditions existing 4.5 billion years ago, just after the planet formed. These unusual signatures can be understood in terms of the ratios of key isotopes of the elements tungsten and helium.
