Tectonic plate subduction is a carbon sink – new discovery by Prof Redfern’s team
In a recent study published in Nature Communications, Prof Simon Redfern and his team show that subduction zones can be carbon sinks, contributing to the long-term storage of carbon in the deep Earth and thereby keeping it from re-entering the atmosphere as CO2. The flows of carbon between the Earth’s crust and the atmosphere are important processes regulating global atmospheric CO2 concentration.
New insights into processes leading up to big earthquakes and tsunamis call for review of tsunami risk assessment
Two recent papers published in Nature Geoscience by researchers from ASE and the EOS Geodesy group shine new light on the geological processes leading up to earthquakes that can generate devastating tsunamis. In view of the new findings, earthquake and tsunami risk assessment need to be revised for coastlines near subduction zones in Asia and worldwide.
