    ... to date. "You still have volcanism on stagnant lid planets, but it's much shorter lived than on planets with plate tectonics because there isn't as much cycling," said Smye. "Volcanoes result in a succession of lava flows, which are buried...

    .... The memory is stored in geological features, chemical composition and movement. Some planets also have a process of ‘forgetting’: plate tectonics on Earth, for example, melts and renews rock surfaces. One could say that because it lacks...

    .... It has been theorised to occur on Venus and it also occurs on Earth. The difference is that our planet has plate tectonics and this allows the recycling of crustal water that is eventually outgassed to the atmosphere through volcanism. Without...
