Mixing in Earth’s outer core causes geomagnetic dipole to collapse

Washington, July 4 (ANI): Scientists have performed numerical calculations that show how convective mixing flows in the Earth’s liquid outer core can cause the geomagnetic dipole to collapse.

For the past 160 years, the Earth’s magnetic dipole has been weakening at a rate of nearly six percent per [...]
