Our planet’s gymnastics routine continues underneath our feet nearly every day, but researchers recently mapped what they say ...

Recent shifts in Earth's magnetic field have human fingerprints all over them. While it is normal for our planet's magnetic ...

The well-known sources of the magnetic field that surrounds Earth are the deep inside core and Earth's crust. Earth's mantle, on the other hand, has been considered to be 'magnetically dead' for ...

“We find that both exhibit strong linearly increasing trends, coupled with a large surge in magnitude between 330 and 220 million years ago,” the authors wrote. “Our findings suggest unexpected strong ...

A study led by University of Iowa Associate Professor David Miles will study how the sun impacts the Earth’s magnetic field ...

Earth's magnetic field, which protects the planet from huge blasts of deadly solar radiation, has been weakening over the past six months, according to data collected by a European Space Agency ...

Earth's magnetic field is generated in the liquid outer core by a dynamo process that converts the motion of electrically conductive fluid into electromagnetic energy.
