Scientists Discover Unprecedented Massive Structure Beneath Bermuda
Originally Published 27 days ago — by IFLScience
Bermuda's unique geological structure is explained by a 20-kilometer-thick, less dense mantle layer beneath it, which acts like a mantle plume, despite Bermuda lacking recent volcanic activity or typical plume features. This discovery challenges existing models of mantle plumes and suggests Bermuda is supported by an unusual mantle layer, possibly due to its geological history or composition.
