Scientists have captured the ocean floor splitting apart in real time, recording several metres of movement and a massive lava release beneath the Indian Ocean. The discovery gives researchers a rare look at how new seafloor is created deep below the waves.

A recent study published in Terratmosphera assesses heavy-metal contamination in agricultural soils around the Ota Industrial Estate in southwestern Nigeria using a six-module Python framework. The study found that cadmium exceeded WHO/FAO limits at half of the sampled locations, while lead recorded very high contamination levels near vehicle-workshop zones. Although the overall ecological risk and non-carcinogenic health risks remained low, cadmium and lead created moderate risks in specific hotspots requiring targeted remediation. The research demonstrates how open-source computational tools can support reproducible, cost-effective soil-pollution monitoring and environmental risk assessment in West Africa.

A proposed geoengineering method meant to cool Earth could accidentally weaken the El Niño climate cycle, disrupting rainfall, ocean conditions, and weather patterns around the world. Scientists warn that climate fixes must be carefully studied before use.
