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 ...

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 ...

If it were the opposite, plate tectonics would play a major role in the oxygen levels, controlling the magnetic field. The geomagnetic field originated from the outer core, and the tectonic plates ...

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.

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

A diagram shows the mechanisms feeding Earth's two LLVPs. ... will need to be factored into models of the deep Earth to determine if it might lead to an unstable geomagnetic field.

NASA's PUNCH mission has unveiled its first images of colossal solar eruptions known as coronal mass ejections (CMEs) — ...
