Earth's magnetic field and oxygen levels have increased more or less in parallel over the past 540 million years, suggesting the two factors are linked in some way, researchers say.

Desert ants of the Cataglyphis nodus species use the Earth's magnetic field for spatial orientation, but these tiny insects rely on a different component of the field than other insects, a ...

Pigeons, bats and sea turtles, for example, appear to sense the geomagnetic field via magnetic particles. Behavioural experiments can distinguish between different mechanisms of magnetoreception ...

Every breath we take in contains 21% oxygen, the gas that makes life on Earth possible. Oxygen, in its combined oxide state, ...

Desert ants of the Cataglyphis nodus species use the Earth's magnetic field for spatial orientation, but rely on a different component of the field than other insects. This is the result of a ...

How Birds And Animals Use The Earth's Geomagnetic Field ... “I had never thought that I would get to a place where we would start understanding the quantum mechanical mechanism that ...

Scientists convert Earth's magnetic field collapse from 41,000 years ago into chilling audio, revealing ancient cosmic ...

The authors discovered this sense relied on a separate mechanism to the magnetic ‘compass’ of the turtle, implying that turtles have two distinct geomagnetic senses to facilitate navigation.
