CHAOS—a model of the Earth's magnetic field derived from CHAMP, Ørsted, and SAC-C magnetic satellite data
We have derived a model of the near-Earth magnetic field (up to spherical harmonic degree
n= 50 for the static field, and up to n= 18 for the first time derivative) using more than 6.5 yr of …

Geomagnetic fluctuations reveal stable stratification at the top of the Earth's core
B Buffett - Nature, 2014 - nature.com
Modern observations of the geomagnetic field reveal fluctuations,, with a dominant period of
about 60 years. These fluctuations are probably a result of waves in the liquid core, although …
