Both shifts are associated with major changes in the Earth's rate of rotation indicating a causal connection. The 1000 BP VGP shift and change in rotation is also associated with a decrease in the geomagnetic dipole field strength. The trans-polar VGP shifts seem to be of dipolar nature. ...

At its very worst, it would mean the obliteration of all living matter, and if that happens - exit Earth. Sixty years ago, an eccentric Hungarian genius discovered how to artificially trigger such a shift, but then his work was lost, or so it was thought. Now, the charismatic leader of...
Here, using an array of autonomous samplers and sensors, we portray microbial and oceanographic seasonality in the two major hydrographic regimes of the Fram Strait. This main deep-water gateway to the central Arctic Ocean harbors the northward, relatively warm and ice-free West Spitsbergen Current...
Several Earth system components are at a high risk of undergoing rapid, irreversible qualitative changes or “tipping” with increasing climate warming. It is therefore necessary to investigate the feasibility of arresting or even reversing the crossing
1b). This shift of about 31° of great circle distance was interpreted as TPW at an average rate of ~2°/Myr and dubbed the “monster polar shift” by Kent and co-workers. The 156 Ma pole (Table 1), which is based on data from two kimberlite localities in Ontario province, Canada...
The data in the interval from 2003 to 2006 have been analyzed in greatest detail: a model for the Chandler and annual oscillations has been constructed and relations between the parameters of these oscillations have been determined; the shift of the instantaneous pole on the phase plane and the...
Many species of plants and animals would adapt or move to deal with the shift in climate, but many would become extinct. Some ecosystems are already changing drastically due to a shift in climate. The University of Alberta reports that much of what once was tundra in northern Canada is ...
Analysis of oriented specimens of stromatolites from the Lower Huronian (Animikean of some authors) of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, the Middle Huronian of the Eastern Mesabi Range of Minnesota, and the Upper Keweenawan of Michigan shows that these structures have a preferred direction of growt...
Earth’s spin axis slowly moves relative to the crust over time. A 120-year-long record of this polar motion from astronomical and more modern geodetic measurements displays interannual and multidecadal fluctuations of 20 to 40 milliarcseconds superimpos
