Inner Core And Liquid Outer Core Generates Earth’S Magnetic Field
by George Cronk June 6, 2021That is where most discussions about the deep interior of the Earth begin. The model correctly predicts the researchers’ new observations about seismic wave travel times through the inner core : The anisotropy, or difference in travel times parallel and…

A New Study Can Be Found At The Journal Lithosophere
by George Cronk April 23, 2020Plate tectonics acts like a planetary thermostat, cycling greenhouse gasses from the deep Earth to the atmosphere. The results appear in the January 22, 2016 issue of the journal Science. All these conditions were fulfilled sometime in early Earth history,…

Earth’s Magnetic Field Is Illustrated Above | World Magnetic Model Update
by George Cronk December 18, 2019In the recent past, the magnetic North Pole has moved 34 miles a year toward Russia. The magnetic field reverses its polarity every several hundred thousand years, where the magnetic north pole resides at the geographic South Pole. New work…

A Billion Years | That’s The Theory Behind The Big Bang
by George Cronk April 20, 2019Massive stars die show that stars like the sun weren’t made planetaries. You can picture a snap shot of the early Universe, somewhere around 100,000 years after the Big Bang. The problem in the early universe was, even though things were cooling down, molecular…

Does The Increasing Urban Heat Islands Increase Global Warming Trend
by Steffen Kohl April 20, 2019However, the graph still shows a long-term trend of global temperature time. One of those ways is to compare them with satellite measurements. And with about 15 years of data from a single satellite and surface data is possible. Experts…

Heightened Air Pollution Has Real And Immediate Impacts On Health
by Steffen Kohl December 29, 2018Researchers at the University of Washington have genetically modified a common houseplant “pothos ivy” to remove chloroform and benzene from the air around it. The pothos ivy was engineered to express a protein called 2E1 which enables the breakdown of…
