Modern geological studies reveal a remarkable phenomenon in the African Afar region that could transform the geographical landscape of the continent. Experts from leading scientific institutions documented an unprecedented event called "geological heartbeat", which represents rhythmic magma waves lasting between 20 and 30 days.
The study, published on June 27, 2025, reveals how hot lithospheric masses from the Earth's mantle cause gradual weakening of the continental crust. This process creates preconditions for future geological division, similar to the formation of ancient oceanic spaces.
Scientific observations reveal an exceptional mechanism of tectonic transformation that can serve as a model for understanding global geological transformations. Researchers emphasize that such discoveries possess the potential for predicting seismic activities and volcanic processes in the affected region.
The results provide a unique window into understanding lithospheric dynamics, demonstrating how planetary processes can change geographical characteristics over millions of years.
