A geomagnetic reversal is a change in a planet's dipole magnetic field such that the positions of magnetic north and magnetic south are interchanged (not to be confused with geographic north and geographic south).
31 Ιαν 2018 · Many times over our planet’s history, Earth ’s magnetic poles have reversed, meaning that sometimes a compass pointing north will be aimed at Antarctica rather than the Arctic. This might sound...
1 Φεβ 2018 · From animal migrations to human communications, a reversal of Earth’s magnetic poles could seriously mess with life as we know it.

22 Ιαν 2024 · Every so often, Earth's magnetic poles completely flip. What causes this to happen? And how do these reversals affect life on Earth?
28 Νοε 2023 · These small-scale deviations in the magnetic field can actually lead to changes in the large-scale field over time and potentially even a complete reversal of the polarity of the dipole field, where the north becomes south and vice versa.
By magnetic reversal, or 'flip', we mean the process by which the North pole is transformed into a South pole and the South pole becomes a North pole. Interestingly, the magnetic field may sometimes only undergo an 'excursion', rather than a reversal.
7 Δεκ 2018 · Dr Thouveny and his team looked at two particular forms of elements that allowed them to probe the history of our planet’s magnetic field in greater detail. For a polarity reversal to occur, the magnetic field needs to weaken by about 90% to a threshold level.
