About the articles
Geology articles for curious minds: 100 long-form essays that explain how the Earth works, from the inner core to volcanoes, earthquakes, oceans and deep time. They are written for when a topic needs citations, nuance or the patience of the written word. Every essay lists its sources and is updated when the science updates, with notes on what’s settled, what’s contested and what’s still a working guess. Start with the latest article, sort the list by title or relevance, or choose a category to explore one field of Earth science in depth.
