Computer models that factor in the Sun's impact on Earth's surface temperatures are providing more accurate simulations of past earthquakes.

Uranus radiates more energy than it gets from the sun, two new studies find — just as Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune do.

Tectonic plates move, causing strain energy to build up, and that energy eventually releases in the form of an earthquake. As ...

A look at what has happened over the years in March tells us the sunshine will start to win the war with Old Man Winter.

Heat from the sun affects earthquake activity on Earth, suggests new research. Incorporating solar activity predictions into ...

Researchers explore the likelihood that Earth's climate, as affected by solar heat, plays a role in seismic activity. Using mathematical and computational methods, they analyzed earthquake data ...

Last year was Phoenix’s hottest year on record. In spite of that, fewer people died as a result of heat in Maricopa County in ...

In recent years, research has focused on a possible correlation between the sun or moon and seismic activity ... as affected by solar heat, plays a role. The study builds on one that a pair ...
