Earth's magnetic field

Whales, dolphins and porpoises end up stranded on beaches and no one knows why.

Strange stripelike features in Earth's magnetic field are caused by the planet's spin, and not by the constant bombardment of solar particles as previously thought, scientists say.

The Earth's magnetic field is responsible for the rotation of both the inner and outer cores, new research suggests.

New experiment looked at the melting temperature of iron under pressure.

Advanced cameras helped scientists spot the phenomenon.

Minerals in ancient stones from the steam ovens of New Zealand's first settlers can reveal the Earth's magnetic field going back 700 years
