A major dip in the Earth’s magnetic field over the South Atlantic has been puzzling scientists for over a century. An international team of researchers analyzed data collected by the European Space ...

If our planet flips and no one’s around to hear it, does it still make a sound? Scientists have managed to put a chilling soundtrack to the flipping of Earth’s magnetic field — and the result is ...

Scientists have known for decades that many animals use the Earth's magnetic field for navigation. It's less clear how they do it. A new study suggests earthworms may be a good way to figure it out.

Satellite data reveal that a weak region in Earth's magnetic field has grown by an area roughly half the size of continental Europe in the last 10 years. A weak region in Earth's magnetic field has ...

Geophysicists have modeled how Earth’s magnetic field could form even when its core was fully liquid. By removing the effects of viscosity in their simulation, they revealed a self-sustaining dynamo ...

More than a decade of satellite monitoring has mapped Earth’s magnetic field as it subtly altered between 2014 and 2025 — and what scientists have learned is remarkable. The South Atlantic Anomaly, a ...

Earth's magnetic field and oxygen levels are inextricably linked, new research suggests. The strength of the geomagnetic field has gone up in lockstep with the percentage of oxygen in Earth's ...
