Researchers studying decades of earthquake data say they have found the first evidence that, in addition to spinning backward ...

A new study of decades worth of seismogram data shows that the surface of Earth’s iron and nickel core is more malleable than ...

Peculiar bursts of energy called chorus waves have been detected in deep space far from our planet, suggesting they could pose problems for long-distance space travel ...

Earth’s magnetic north is not static. Like an anchorless buoy pushed by ocean waves, the magnetic field is constantly on the move as liquid iron sloshes around in the planet’s outer core.

Our planet, Earth, is structurally composed of a series of concentric internal spherical layers that are divided into: crust, upper mantle, mantle, outer core and inner core. Every ...

Earth's magnetic field occasionally bursts into song — but these compositions are written with electromagnetic radiation, not ...

Earth’s inner core is shifting, slowing, and reshaping. Scientists study its impact on magnetic fields, pole movement, and ...

This magnetic field that extends from Earth's interior into space is thought ... Magnetic signals from oceanic tides: new satellite observations and applications, Philosophical Transactions ...

The models take in observations from satellites that continuously measure Earth’s magnetic field, as well as from ground observatories worldwide. Using the models, Beggan said, scientists can ...

This transformation is believed to be occurring at the boundary where the solid inner core meets the scorching hot liquid ...
