Did the Earth have a magnetic field before 3.5 billion years ago? Previous paleomagnetic studies of the world’s oldest mineral grains – the Jack Hills zircons, which have maximum ages of 4.4 billion years – claimed that tiny inclusions of … Continue reading
How long was the last magnetic reversal – and why might subducting slabs have had a say in what it looked like?
A new paper on the chronology of the last magnetic reversal concludes it took 20,000 yrs, and there were two distinct excursions – where the field becomes weak and disorganized, but it recovers without reversing polarity – before the main event about … Continue reading
