The behavior of a lithospheric magnetization and magnetic field model
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2023 The Earth’s “lithosphere” is its outer shell, made up of the Earth’s crust and outermost mantle. The part of the Earth’s magnetic field that originates in the lithosphere consists of a superposition of magnetic anomalies with a broad spectrum of sizes ...

Influences of various space current systems on the geomagnetic field in near-Earth space
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2023 Ground and space-based observations of the geomagnetic field are usually a superposition of different sources from the Earth’s core, lithosphere, ocean, ionosphere, and magnetosphere, and also from field-aligned currents coupling the ionosphere and ...
