Incredibly, a new study published in the journal Science Advances reports that these submerged landforms likely formed roughly 1 million years ago—smack dab in the middle of the MPT.

There are about 130 scenic spots in the zone－many of which are microscopic landforms formed by water erosion－and sightseers can see them on the two sides of the delicately-designed travel ...

The phenomenon may not be limited to Earth’s surface: similar landforms might also be common on Mars. Until recently, there was no convincing explanation of how erosion created such unusual forms.

Drumlins and megaridges are all part of a single family of landforms formed by erosion, new research concludes. Shaped like an upturned boat, drumlin hills are found clustered together in their ...

Balme'sanalysis indicates that the landforms he examined formed by the melting ofice-rich soils during "freeze-thaw" cycles that continued until asrecently as 2 million years ago.

An odd, previously unseen landform could provide a window into the geological history of Mars, according to new research by geologists. They call the structures periodic bedrock ridges.

Photos of the Yadan landform, dry areas whose landscape has been formed by wind erosion, at Eboliang in the hinterlands of the Qaidam Basin in Qinghai Province. The area is home to a great variety ...
