NASA is launching four satellites in a $1.1 billion mission to study the high-speed interactions between Earth's magnetic field and the sun's to learn more about the mechanisms responsible for the titanic energy discharges that drive auroras and play havoc with satellite navigation, communications ...
GP President-Elect Ron Merrill has appointed a steering committee to develop a new initiative for a program to study the earth's magnetic field. In addition to Merrill, who will serve as chair, and Kenneth Verosub (University of California, Davis) who will be vice-chair, the committee ...

WASHINGTON, April 30 (Xinhua) -- An international team of researchers has found that the reversal of the Earth's magnetic field is unlikely to take place anytime soon, according to a study published Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. It came after speculation that ...
Earth’s magnetic field is generated by turbulent motion in its fluid outer core. Although the bulk of the outer core is vigorously convecting and well mixed, some seismic, geomagnetic and geodynamic evidence suggests that a global stably stratified laye
C Sharks use the Earth's magnetic field (??) as a sort of natural GPS to Dr Keller said further study was needed to find how the sharks used the navigate (??) journeys that take them great distances across the world's magnetic fields to determine their location and whether larger, ...
Small magnetic grains in rocks will orient themselves to be parallel to the direction of the magnetic field pointing towards the north pole. (b) The geomagnetic polarity time scale shows how the polarity of the earth’s magnetic field has changed through time. Black bands indicate times of ...
摘要原文 Our aim in this proposal is by using the Faraday's law of induction as a simple lecture demonstration to measure the Earth's magnetic field (B). This will also enable the students to learn about how electric power is generated from the rotational motion. Obviously the idea is not...
Until recently, it has not been known what kind of mechanism allows to birds to sense the Earth’s magnetic field An Arctic tern, a tiny bird weighing just 100 grams,flew an incredible 60,000 milesover the course of its yearly migration, the longest migration journey ever recorded. This wa...
Earth’s magnetic field was in a highly unusual state when macroscopic animals of the Ediacara Fauna diversified and thrived. Any connection between these events is tantalizing but unclear. Here, we present single crystal paleointensity data from 2054 and 591 Ma pyroxenites and gabbros that define...
