Empiric Models of the Earth's Free Core Nutation
Free core nutation (FCN) is the main factor that limits the accuracy of the modeling of the motion of Earth's rotational axis in the celestial coordinate system. Several FCN models have been proposed.

Could the Mw = 9.3 Sumatra earthquake trigger a geomagnetic jerk? [PDF]
The magnetic field observed at the Earth's surface is not a stationary feature. It is characterized by time variations ranging from milliseconds (micropulsations) to millions of years (the time interval between field reversals). Time variations with periods of a year or longer are related to Earth's outer core sources, whereas for shorter timescales an

The environment to the rescue: can physics help predict predator–prey interactions?
ABSTRACT Understanding the factors that determine the occurrence and strength of ecological interactions under specific abiotic and biotic conditions is fundamental since many aspects of ecological community stability and ecosystem functioning depend on patterns of interactions among species.

Twenty years of geomagnetic field observations at Mario Zucchelli Station (Antarctica) [PDF]
During the 1986-87 austral summer a geomagnetic observatory was installed at Terra Nova Bay. During the first years both geomagnetic field time variation monitoring and absolute measurements were carried out only during summer.

Abstract Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GICs) are a severe space weather hazard, driven through coupling between the solar wind and magnetosphere. GICs are rarely measured directly, instead the ground magnetic field variability is often used as a proxy.

Obtaining High‐Resolution Magnetic Records From Speleothems Using Magnetic Microscopy
Abstract Speleothems are mineral deposits capable of recording detrital and/or chemical remanent magnetization at annual timescales. They can offer high‐resolution paleomagnetic records of short‐term variations in Earth's magnetic field, crucial for understanding the evolution of the dynamo.

The Low Earth Orbit (LEO) geomagnetic satellites provide a large number of high-precision measurements, which are crucial for researching the Secular Variation (SV) of the geomagnetic field.

Abstract The interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) north‐south component, Bz, plays a crucial role in the interaction between the solar wind and the Earth's magnetosphere. We analyze 98 intervals in which Bz changed from >3 nT to <−3 nT in 5 min and for which these rapid southward turnings (STs) were surrounded by consistently northward or southward IMF.

On the Association of Substorm Identification Methods
Abstract Substorms are a rapid release of energy that is redistributed throughout the magnetosphere‐ionosphere system, resulting in many observable signals, such as enhancements in the aurora, energetic particle injections, and ground magnetic field perturbations.

The SGR 1806-20 magnetar signature on the Earth's magnetic field
SGRs denote ``soft $\gamma$-ray repeaters'', a small class of slowly spinning neutron stars with strong magnetic fields. On 27 December 2004, a giant flare was detected from magnetar SGR 1806-20.
