The South Atlantic Anomaly — a growing weak spot in Earth’s magnetic shield — has expanded by nearly half the size of continental Europe since 2014, with especially intense weakening now occurring near Africa. At the same time, magnetic strength is rising over Siberia and fading over Canada, reflecting powerful changes unfolding deep inside Earth’s core.

Brick dates to the reign of Nebuchadnezzar II (ca. 604 to 562 BCE) based on the interpretation of the inscription. This object was looted from its original context before being acquired by the Slemani Museum and stored in that museum with agreement from the central government.

Activity deep in Earth affects the global magnetic field

New study reveals, how foreshock waves interact with Earth’s magnetosphere. Foreshock waves are able to tune the shock, making it alternatively stronger or weaker. These waves could only be detected in a narrow region behind the shock. (Image: Lucile Turc)

How magnetism could help explain Earth’s formation

Rock samples collected near the Antarctic volcano Mount Erebus, seen here in the distance, harbor fingerprints of Earth’s ancient magnetic field. A new analysis delves into discrepancies between these fingerprints and predictions from a long-standing approximation of the field. Credit: Hanna Asefaw
