Learn about the history, causes and effects of geomagnetic reversal, a change in the Earth's dipole magnetic field such that the positions of magnetic north and south are interchanged. See the geomagnetic polarity time scale and the magnetic stripes on the ocean floors.
Learn about the process and history of magnetic reversals, or 'flips', of the Earth's magnetic field. Find out how they are detected, how they affect life and the environment, and how they relate to the Sun and space.
31 Ιαν 2018 · Learn what a geomagnetic reversal is, how often it happens, and what effects it may have on life on Earth. Find out why a polar flip is not a doomsday scenario, but a natural phenomenon that has happened many times in the past.
1 Φεβ 2018 · Learn how the Earth's magnetic field, anchored by the North and South poles, affects life and technology on our planet. Explore the history, science and potential impacts of a polar reversal, based on the book The Spinning Magnet by Alanna Mitchell.
22 Ιαν 2024 · Learn why Earth's magnetic field reverses its polarity every so often and how it affects life on Earth. Find out how paleomagnetism, space weather and human civilization are linked to magnetic variations and reversals.
The Earth's magnetic field has flipped hundreds of times in the past, and it could happen again soon. Learn how a giant spinning sphere at the University of Maryland tries to predict and understand the next reversal.
27 Σεπ 2004 · Learn how Earth's magnetic field reverses itself every 200,000 years on average, and what scientists have discovered about the process using a computer model and geologic record. Find out how instabilities in the core generate new magnetic fields and weaken the existing one.
