The Magnetic Shield That Protects Our Climate Earth is surrounded by an immense magnetic field, called the magnetosphere.

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 ...

Microscopic magnetic fossils found in North Atlantic seafloor sediments may represent components of an internal "GPS system" ...

Based on the grazing view, the general consensus was that the plasma cells and the magnetic field shifted poleward more slowly than at the equator. But Solar Orbiter has shown that the speed is higher ...
