The Earth is predicted to increase its rotation speed in July and August, once again bucking the trend of a slower rotation over time. Though there are clear reasons for the increased rotational ...

The team built a 120-year model of polar motion, allowing them to track shifts in Earth's axis over time, showing that shifting mass can also alter the axis of rotation.

Decades worth of seismic data confirms the rotation of Earth's inner core has slowed down and is moving slower than the planet's surface.

Humans may have altered the Earth ’s rotation significantly between 1993 and 2010 alone by pumping large quantities of water out of the ground and moving it elsewhere. Alarming levels of ...
