Computer models solve geologic riddle millions of years in the making
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Mar 25, 2014 - An international team of scientists that included USC's Meghan Miller used computer modeling to reveal, for the first time, how giant swirls form during the collision of tectonic plates - with subduction zones stuttering and recovering after continental fragments slam into them. The team's 3D models suggest a likely answer to a question that has long plagued geologists: why do long, curvin ... more
