Magnetization and age of ca. 544 Ma syenite, eastern Canada: Evidence for renewal of the geodynamo [PDF]

open access: yes
The ca. 565 Ma Ediacaran geodynamo was highly unusual, producing an ultralow field 10 times weaker than present-day value of 8 x 1022 A m2. A ∼5 times rise in field strength is seen in time-averaged single crystal paleointensity data of ca.

Mode analysis of numerical geodynamo models

open access: yes, 2011
International audienceIt has been suggested in Hoyng (2009) that dynamo action can be analysed by expansion of the magnetic field into dynamo modes and statistical evaluation of the mode coefficients. We here validate this method by analysing a numerical

A Study of Stochastic Resonance in the Periodically Forced Rikitake Dynamo

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2007
The geodynamo has widely been thought to be an intuitive and selfsustained model of the Earth¡¦s magnetic field. In this paper, we elucidate how a periodic signal could be embedded in the geomagnetic filed via the mechanism of stochastic resonance in a ...

An alternate representation of the geomagnetic core field obtained using machine learning

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
Machine learning (ML) as a tool is rapidly emerging in various branches of contemporary geophysical research. To date, however, rarely has it been applied specifically for the study of Earth’s internal magnetic field and the geodynamo. Prevailing methods

More stable yet bimodal geodynamo during the Cretaceous superchron?

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
We report palaeomagnetic and 40Ar/39Ar dating results from two sequences of basaltic lava flows deposited at the same locality in western China, yet separated in time by ~50 Myr: one set lies within the Cretaceous normal superchron at 112–115 Ma and a ...

Experimental Constraints on an MgO Exsolution‐Driven Geodynamo

open access: yes, 2019
MgO exsolution has been proposed to drive an early geodynamo. Experimental studies, however, have drawn different conclusions regarding the applicability of MgO exsolution. While many studies suggest that significant Mg can dissolve into the Earth's core,

High thermal conductivity of the Earth's core and geodynamo

open access: yesVestnik MGTU
The geomagnetic field is generated by dynamo processes in the Earth's core. This process is supported by the cooling of the planet and the growth of the solid core. It is known that the magnetic field existed long before the appearance of the solid core,

Experimental dynamos: from models to applications to the geodynamo

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Physique
Larmor proposed in 1919 an explanation for the origin of the Sun’s magnetic field. This phenomenon, known as the dynamo effect, is considered to be responsible for most of the magnetic fields of astrophysical objects, including that of the Earth. It took

Rikitake's geodynamo model analysed in terms of classical time series statistics

open access: yes, 1995
Rikitake's geodynamo model is used to generate synthetic series of geomagnetic reversals which are statistically compared with the real series of reversals.

Modeling Geomagnetic Field Reversals with Coupled Particles in a Double-Well Potential

open access: yesAlbanian Journal of Natural and Technical Sciences
We study a minimal model of geomagnetic field reversals, inspired by Molina-Cardin et al. (2021), in which two particles evolve in a double-well potential and interact through elastic coupling.
