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

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

Now, a team of geophysicists from ETH Zürich in Switzerland thinks they have found the answer in Earth's molten iron core, with tiny alterations affecting the planet's rotation. On decadal scales, a ...

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

Seismic waves from earthquakes have revealed that the inner core's rotation may have slowed, paused, or even reversed ...

Geophysicists studying seismic waves from earthquakes have found evidence suggesting that Earth's inner core not only rotates ...

"What If is an epic exploration of possibilities. What If is a Webby Award-winning science web series that takes you on a journey through hypothetical worlds and possibilities, some in distant corners ...
