Rapid changes in the Earth's core: The magnetic field and gravity from a satellite perspective

Monday, October 22, 2012 - 14:01 in Earth & Climate

Annual to decadal changes in the earth's magnetic field in a region that stretches from the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean have a close relationship with variations of gravity in this area. From this it can be concluded that outer core processes are reflected in gravity data. This is the result presented by a German-French group of geophysicists in the latest issue of PNAS (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences).
