Cratonization – how did the Archean cratons form?

1. Getting Started Cratonization refers to the process by which stable continental crust, known as cratons, formed during the Archean eon, approximately 4 to 2.5 billion years ago. Archean cratons are the oldest and most persistent parts of the Earth’s continental lithosphere, and their formation played a critical role in shaping the early geology of

Unveiling the Enigma: Unprecedented Darkness in Daytime During the Australian Bushfires

Understanding the Pitch Darkness Phenomenon in Australian Wildfires Australia has experienced a devastating series of bushfires in recent years, and one of the most puzzling aspects of these fires was the occurrence of pitch darkness during the day.
