By observing everything; gravity - topography - seismology (especially seismology) - density - the effect of other heavenly bodies, such as the Moon - samples brought up by volcanoes - drilling in deep ocean areas where the crust is thin - the magnetic field - the behavior of earthquakes - other planets - etc.
By doing this, and analyzing everything, scientists have been able to piece together theories, confirm them, and test them against new theories. Its all part of the scientific process.
oliver headly was a solar scientist and chemist !!!!! YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT!!!!!!!!!
is the temperature if the stiffer mantle above or below its melting point
edi wala
why could wegener alfred be called a interdisciplinary scientist
why is it important that scientists know and accept their limitations?
Auther Holmes is the Scientist who first proposed that theral convection in the mantle causes continental drift.
they what?
The boundary between the crust and mantle is called the Mohorovicic discontinuity (or Moho); it is named in honor of the man who discovered it, the Croatian scientist Andrija Mohorovicic
Because of the difference/wavering in the earths magnetic field due to thwe fact the inner core is largely Iron....
Why do scientists look to the ocean floor to research the mantle? Because magma from the mantle flows out of active volcanoes on the ocean floor. These underwater volcanoes have given scientists many clues about the composition of the mantle.
I suppose "the Mohorovičić discontinuity" is what you are looking for. But, Mr. Mohorovičić was not a Yugoslavian, he was a Croatian. So the question should be "What was named after a Croatian scientist and is found between the crust and the mantle?", if the Mohorovičić discontinuity indeed is what you are looking for.
Scientists can learn about Earth's mantle through seismic studies that analyze how seismic waves travel through the mantle, laboratory experiments that simulate mantle conditions, and by studying rare mantle-derived rocks that reach the Earth's surface through volcanic eruptions.
Arthur Holmes who is a geologist.
Alfred Wegener, a German meteorologist and geophysicist, proposed the theory of continental drift in 1912. He suggested that thermal convection currents in the mantle cause the movement of continents over time.
The crust and uppermost brittle mantle are referred to as the lithosphere.
Scientists study the mantle through seismic imaging, mineral physics experiments, and by examining mantle-derived rocks that reach the surface through volcanic activity. These methods provide critical insights into the composition, structure, and dynamics of the Earth's mantle.
they cut cross-sections of layers using a specially made drill
