revealing how deep tectonic movements can influence mountains, basins, and seismic activity at the surface. The collision between the Arabian and Eurasian plates has been ongoing for tens of ...

Their research revealed that in the present day, deep below the Earth’s surface, the Neotethys oceanic plate – the ocean floor that used to be between the Arabian and Eurasian continents ...

A similar process created the nearby Saudi Arabian peninsula, according to scientists. Scientists using GPS and satellite mapping to track how the tectonic plates underlying Africa are separating ...

By Julian James The emergence of this new ocean is tied to the gradual movement of tectonic plates. The African, Arabian, and Somali plates are drifting apart, creating the East African Rift—a ...

The Arabian and Eurasian plates are colliding ... Further research into the bending and breaking of tectonic plates reveals their impact on the movement of heat and fluids deep within the Earth.

Scientists have detected that the Neotethys oceanic plate is tearing apart horizontally, altering the region’s tectonic landscape in ways never seen before. For millions of years, the Arabian ...

A new ocean is forming in East Africa due to tectonic shifts, potentially reshaping the continent and altering global geography over millions of years.
