The findings of a new study by the University of Liverpool provides further evidence of an approximately 200 million-year long cycle in the strength of the Earth's magnetic field.

Dunes, Climate Models Don't Match Up With Paleomagnetic Records Date: November 28, 2007 Source: University of Nebraska-Lincoln Summary: For a quarter-century or more, the view among geoscientists ...

One of the most interesting discoveries about Earth in the past few decades concerns the Earth’s magnetic poles. Paleomagnetic records show that the poles have flipped places 183 times in the ...

However, paleomagnetic studies show the field is actually about the strongest it’s been in the past 100,000 years, and is twice as intense as its million-year average," NASA explains.

New paleomagnetic research suggests a more precise estimate for the age of Earth's solid inner core. The research provides clues about the history and future evolution of Earth and how it became a ...

A new analysis of computer simulations of Earth’s magnetic field suggests that its behavior was different early in Earth’s history, resulting in greater stability and fewer reversals of the magnetic ...

The evolution of the lunar dynamo is crucial for understanding the moon's deep interior structure, thermal history, and surface environment. A study by Chinese scientists conducted paleomagnetic ...
