Paleomagnetic records are the remnant magnetisation preserved in rocks, sediments and speleothems that faithfully archive the orientation and intensity of the Earth’s magnetic field through geological ...
Earth’s magnetic field acts as a vital shield against radiation arriving from space, but it is not constant. A new international study has examined how a reduction of the magnetic field similar to the ...
Every few hundred thousand years, Earth’s magnetic poles flip, turning north into south and south into north. These geomagnetic reversals can take thousands of years, but shorter disruptions—called ...
The Earth’s magnetic field is generated by convective motions in the liquid outer core, a process known as the geodynamo. Over geological time, this field has undergone continual change in intensity ...
Something massive is happening beneath your feet right now, and most people have absolutely no idea. Earth's magnetic field, the invisible force that protects all life on this planet and guides ...
Dr Sanja Panovska, project leader in Section 2.3 “Geomagnetism” at the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences, has been awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant for her “EXCURSION” project. The ...
