    Fluids flowing through cavities in Earth’s crust can deposit gold. Thermo-mechanical modelling of a fluid-filled cavity that expands suddenly during an earthquake shows that the drop in pressure would cause the fluid to vaporize and deposit the gold almost instantaneously.

    Ocean eddies generated through instability of the mean flow are a vital component of the energy budget of the global ocean. Modelling combined with satellite altimetry data suggests that the energy from westward-propagating eddies is scattered and eventually dispersed when they reach the western boundary of an ocean basin.
