Earth's magnetic field and oxygen levels have increased more or less in parallel over the past 540 million years, suggesting ...

Earth’s oxygenated atmosphere and magnetic field make life possible, but scientists have discovered that there’s a hidden ...

The increase and decrease in levels of the magnetic field and oxygen were parallel across ages, which might help narrow down ...

The strength of Earth’s magnetic field and the amount of oxygen in its atmosphere seem to be correlated—and scientists want ...

Scientists convert Earth's magnetic field collapse from 41,000 years ago into chilling audio, revealing ancient cosmic ...

Scientists explore the mystery of Neanderthal extinction. A new theory links their disappearance to the Laschamp event. This ...

Strength of the magnetic field at Earth's surface. The last such cataclysmic event occurred about 41,000 years ago, leaving a signature in the Laschamps lava flows in France. As the field weakened to ...

Earth's dipole field is currently tilted by approximately 9.2 degrees relative to its axis of rotation. This causes the deviation between geomagnetic and geographic poles. The strength of the field ...
