The Mystery of Transverse Scars on the Atlantic Ocean Floor: Unraveling the Causes
UncategorizedThe Atlantic Ocean floor is home to a series of peculiar features known as “transverse scars”. These scars are linear, diagonal features that cut across the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and are visible on bathymetric maps of the ocean floor. The scars have puzzled scientists for decades, with no clear explanation for their origin. In this article,

The Overwhelming Presence of Water on Earth’s Surface: Exploring the Source of 71%
UncategorizedEarth is a unique planet in our solar system because it is the only known planet that supports life. One of the key factors that makes life on Earth possible is the abundance of water on its surface. Water covers approximately 71% of the Earth’s surface, making it the most abundant substance on our planet.

Exploring the Cryogenian Earth: How Biodiversity Changed During a Time of Global Cooling
UncategorizedThe Cryogenian Earth: A Brief Overview The Cryogenian was a period of global cooling on Earth that occurred between 850 and 635 million years ago. During this time, the Earth experienced a series of extreme glaciations that altered the global climate and had a significant impact on biodiversity. This period is important for the study

How to Detect that a Problem is Not Bounded with the Simplex Method
UncategorizedThe Simplex Method is an algorithm that allows us to solve Linear Programming models that in certain occasions allows us to identify exceptional cases such as infinite optimal solutions or that the problem is not bounded. In this context the Simplex Method rescues the conditions established in the Fundamental Theorem of Linear Programming. In the

What are we seeing when we see the curvature of Earth?
UncategorizedAsked by: Michael Hoff It is possible to see the effect of the curvature of the earth from sea level (ships disappearing over the horizon). To actually see the curvature directly (ie to be able to see the horizon as an arc, rather than a straight line) requires an altitude of over 50,000 feet. How
