“We find that both exhibit strong linearly increasing trends, coupled with a large surge in magnitude between 330 and 220 ...
Every breath we take in contains 21% oxygen, the gas that makes life on Earth possible. Oxygen, in its combined oxide state, ...
The strength of Earth’s magnetic field and the amount of oxygen in its atmosphere seem to be correlated—and scientists want ...
The increase and decrease in levels of the magnetic field and oxygen were parallel across ages, which might help narrow down ...
NASA finds a historic link between magnetic field shifts and oxygen levels, possibly key to life’s evolution on Earth.
Earth's magnetic field and oxygen levels have increased more or less in parallel over the past 540 million years, suggesting ...
The solar wind flows around Earth's magnetic field. A new NASA study suggests that the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere and strength of the magnetic field have been correlated for more than half ...
When the magnetic field around the Earth grows stronger, oxygen levels rise. That is the surprising finding of a new study looking at more than half a billion years of planetary history.
If you could flip back through deep time like pages in a graphic novel, you’d see two lines: one tracking Earth’s magnetic muscle, the other the oxygen that makes almost all types of living on our ...
Mercury doesn't give up its secrets easily. The smallest planet in our solar system is also one of the most extreme—a ...
