The Earth has lost enough groundwater to thirsty humans to measurably tilt the planet’s axis of rotation 1. The net water lost from underground reservoirs between 1993 and 2010 is estimated to be more ...

For the first time, researchers at ETH Zurich have been able to fully explain the various causes of long-term polar motion in the most comprehensive modeling to date, using AI methods. Their model and ...

The Earth’s axis of rotation is shifting due to climate change and movements in the Earth’s interior. The corresponding polar motion is triggered by shifts in mass such as the melting of polar ice ...
