Saturday / 27 / Rabi’ Al-Thani / 1445 AH – 23:12 – Saturday 11 November 2023 23:12 Research into ancient geological events indicates that our planet has a slow and steady “heartbeat” of geological activity approximately every 27 million years. The pulse of clustered geological events moves , including volcanic activity, mass extinctions, plate reorganization, and sea level rise, slowly, with a 27.5 million-year cycle of catastrophic tides, but fortunately for us, researchers believe we have another 20 million years before the “pulse.” Next. “Many geologists believe that geological events are random over time,” Michael Rampino, a geoscientist at New York University and lead author of the study, said in a 2021 statement, “but we provide statistical evidence for a common cycle, which suggests that these geological events are interconnected, not random.” The team analyzed the histories of 89 well-understood geological events from the past 260 million years. More than 8 of these world-changing events came together over small geological timescales, forming the catastrophic “pulse.”
