The magnetic field of our planet produces a tailed bubble that mostly protects us from cosmic and solar radiation. This is the magnetosphere. As the solar wind – the flow of charged particles from the ...
Earth’s magnetosphere, once thought to have a simple electric polarity pattern, has revealed a surprising twist. New satellite data and advanced simulations show that the morning side of the ...
Past magnetic-field data helps us understand the "geodynamo" — the engine that generates our planet's protective magnetic field. This field is generated by liquid iron slowly moving around the ...
Earth’s magnetic field shields our planet from dangerous solar energy and damaging cosmic radiation, while the gravitational ...
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 ...

You may have seen headlines or social media posts talking about a weakening of Earth’s magnetic field, specifically over the South Atlantic. It sounds dramatic, and a little scary. Is Earth losing its ...
Geophysicists from ETH Zurich and SUSTech, China, have demonstrated the dynamo effect of the Earth’s core in a model in which viscosity has no influence, as is the correct physical regime for the ...
Latest research led by Professor Zhonghua YAO of the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences (DEPS) at The University of ...
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 ...
