Comparing Two Descriptions of Earth Interior Structure Inside the
... magnesium, and calcium than the crust, is hotter and denser because temperature and pressure inside the Earth increase with depth. As a comparison, the mantle might be thought of as the white of a boiled egg. At the center of the Earth lies the core, which is nearly twice as dense as the mantle beca ...

... unknown roundworm, or nematode, species in a gold mine in South Africa. The tiny 0.5 millimeter (0.02 inch)-long roundworm lives in fluid-filled cracks up to 3.5 kilometers (2.2 miles) beneath Earth’s surface. Most other multicellular life on Earth is found above ground or within 9 meters (30 feet) ...

Geodesy
Geodesy (/dʒiːˈɒdɨsi/), — also known as geodetics or geodetics engineering — a branch of applied mathematics and earth sciences, is the scientific discipline that deals with the measurement and representation of the Earth, including its gravitational field, in a three-dimensional time-varying space. Geodesists also study geodynamical phenomena such as crustal motion, tides, and polar motion. For this they design global and national control networks, using space and terrestrial techniques while relying on datums and coordinate systems.
