A new model uncovers how Earth’s liquid core has sustained its magnetic field since the planet’s beginnings, offering new ...

The ionosphere—the region of geospace spanning from 60 to 1000 kilometers above the Earth—impairs the propagation of radio signals from global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) with its electrically ...

A new simulation model shows Earth's evolution over the past 100 million years in a very detailed manner. The sun sets behind artist Luke Jerram's 'Floating Earth' at Pennington Flash on November 22, ...

Geophysicists at ETH Zurich are using models of the lower mantle to identify areas where earthquake waves behave differently than previously assumed. This indicates the presence of zones of rocks that ...

In Earth’s early days, more than 4 billion years ago, the surface was a dangerous and unpredictable place. Violent volcanoes, ...

A number of hypotheses have been used to explain how free oxygen first accumulated in Earth’s atmosphere some 2.4 billion years ago, but a full understanding has proven elusive. Now a new model offers ...

The Earth’s magnetic field serves multiple crucial functions, ranging from protecting our planet against solar wind and cosmic radiation to facilitating animal migration patterns and supporting human ...

The term 'Digital Twin of the Earth' creates the idea of the availability of a highly accurate virtual copy of our planet, enabling researchers to predict the most complex future climate developments ...

The ionosphere – the region of geospace spanning from 60 to 1000 kilometres above the Earth – impairs the propagation of radio signals from global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) with its ...

With the help of neural networks, the complexity of the layer around the Earth can be reconstructed much better than before. This is important for satellite navigation, among other things. The ...
