Geomagnetic reversal rates following Palaeozoic superchrons have a fast restart mechanism [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
The mechanism behind the initiation and termination of superchrons remains unclear. Here, the author provides insight into Palaeozoic superchrons, showing that the 10 million year interal adjacent to each superchron is characterized by asymmetry in ...

Regionally-triggered geomagnetic reversals. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep
AbstractSystematic studies of numerical dynamo simulations reveal that the transition from dipole-dominated non-reversing fields to models that exhibit reversals occurs when inertial effects become strong enough. However, the inertial force is expected to play a secondary role in the force balance in Earth’s outer core.

Extraordinarily long duration of Eocene geomagnetic polarity reversals [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
One of the most intriguing attributes of Earth’s magnetic field is that it reverses polarity. Previous palaeomagnetic records mainly from the last ~17 million years indicate that the reversal process typically occurs over ten thousand or fewer years ...

Influence of Solar Wind High‐Speed Streams on the Brazilian Low‐Latitude Ionosphere During the Descending Phase of Solar Cycle 24 [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Weather
This study investigates the Brazilian low‐latitude ionospheric response to CIR/HSS‐driven geomagnetic storms during the declining phase of solar cycle 24, from 2016 to 2017.

Toward a possible next geomagnetic transition? [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013
The geomagnetic field is subject to possible reversals or excursions of polarity during its temporal evolution. Considering that: (a) in the last 83 million yr the typical average time between one reversal and the next (the so-called chron) is around 400

A full sequence of the Matuyama–Brunhes geomagnetic reversal in the Chiba composite section, Central Japan

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2020
Geological records of the Matuyama–Brunhes (M–B) geomagnetic reversal facilitate the development of an age model for sedimentary and volcanic sequences and help decipher the dynamics of the Earth’s magnetic field.

On the Particle Motion in Paleo‐Magnetosphere During the Geomagnetic Polarity Reversal

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
During the Earth's magnetic reversal, the dipole component of the magnetic field weakens, and the non‐dipole component becomes dominant, resulting in a far more complex magnetospheric topology than that of a dipole.

Geomagnetic reversals at the edge of regularity

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2021
Geomagnetic field reversals remain as one of the most intriguing problems in geophysics and are regarded as chaotic processes resulting from a dynamo mechanism.

A paleomagnetic record of the early Matuyama chron including the Réunion subchron and the onset Olduvai boundary: High-resolution magnetostratigraphy and insights from transitional geomagnetic fields

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2020
We present a novel paleomagnetic record for the lower Matuyama chronozone, which includes the Réunion subchronozone and the lower Olduvai polarity reversal, from a continuous section of a 168-m-thick on-land marine succession in the southernmost part of ...

Unveiling Geomagnetic Reversals: Insights From Tipping Points Theory

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The geomagnetic field shows aperiodic reversals and excursions separated by stable polarity periods. Although the exact mechanisms responsible of reversals are still debated, several models of different complexity have been proposed. Here we use, for the
