For many species, the Earth’s magnetic field serves as a navigational guide ... on geomagnetic cues to find their way. A significant shift in magnetic poles could confuse these animals ...

The implications of the magnetic north pole's shift extend to various technological applications that rely on the Earth's magnetic field, such as the Global Positioning System (GPS) and satellite ...

But never fear — this shape-shifting won’t directly affect life on Earth. Over time, changes to this innermost layer could impact the planet’s magnetic field, which shields our world from ...

NASA's EZIE will study auroral electrojets, powerful electrical currents in Earth's atmosphere. This will improve space ...

If it weren’t for the magnetic field that surrounds our planet, blocking cosmic radiation and solar wind, Earth would likely have little atmosphere to speak of. Life (at least of the human variety) ...

A perfectly preserved ancient tree fossil offered scientists an unprecedented view into a moment 42,000 years ago when the Earth’s magnetic field went haywire. The compelling 2021 study tells ...

The magnetic field and the liquid outer core are ... the mantle will speed up. This shift ultimately makes the Earth rotate faster, but translates to only thousandths of a second in day length.

Dancing turtles have proved for the first time that some animals use Earth's magnetic field to create a personal map of their favourite spots, scientists said Wednesday.

But never fear — this shape-shifting won’t directly affect life on Earth. Over time, changes to this innermost layer could impact the planet’s magnetic field, which shields our world from solar ...
