Many of the fluctuations in the length of Earth's day have known causes. But on scales of decades to millennia, scientists ...

New simulations reveal deeper insights into Earth's core and magnetic field, with future implications for technology and AI.

New simulation methods reveal insights into the Earth's core and promise advances in neuromorphic computing for artificial ...

Seismic data reveals Earth’s inner core may not only be slowing its spin but also reshaping its surface structure.

Earthquake data suggest that all or small patches of the inner core's surface may be swelling and contracting.

As much as we have explored and modeled our planet, there are a number of mysteries that surround the Earth's inner core. This isn't that surprising, as it's pretty difficult to study a region ...

How does the Earth generate its magnetic field? While the basic mechanisms seem to be understood, many details remain ...

How does the Earth generate its magnetic field? While the basic mechanisms seem to be understood, many details remain unresolved. A team of researchers from the Center for Advanced Systems ...

Geophysicists studying seismic waves from earthquakes have found evidence suggesting that Earth's inner core not only rotates differently but also changes shape. Analysis of earthquake waveforms ...

Earth’s inner core, a solid metal ball gyrating within the molten outer core, may be both slowing down and changing shape. Recent analyses of earthquake waves have suggested that around 15 years ago, ...
