Earth's magnetic field is generated by fluid motions in the outer core. This geodynamo has
operated for over 3.4 billion years. However, the mechanism that has sustained the …

The Earth's core–mantle boundary presents a dramatic change in materials, from silicate to
metal. While little is known about chemical interactions between them, a thin layer with a …

The thermal conductivity (κ) of Earth's core is a critical parameter that controls predictions of
core cooling rate, inner core age and the power available to the geodynamo. However, the …

Systematic studies of numerical dynamo simulations reveal that the transition from dipole-
dominated non-reversing fields to models that exhibit reversals occurs when inertial effects …

Increasing seismic evidence has accumulated, suggesting that the Earth's outer core
consists of distinct zones of low P-wave velocities in the top and bottom regions relative to …

Thermo‐chemical interactio ns at the core‐mantle boundary (CMB) play an integral role in
determining the dynamics and evolution of Earth's deep interior. This review considers the …

Stable stratification at the top of the Earth's outer core has been suggested based upon
seismic and geomagnetic observations, however, the origin of the layer is still unknown. In …

The existing reference Earth models have provided an excellent one‐dimensional
representation of Earth's properties as a function of its radius and explained many seismic …

Seismic and magnetic observations have suggested the presence of a stably stratified layer
atop Earth's core. Such a layer could affect the morphology of the geomagnetic field and the …

Seismic observations of a slowdown in P wave velocity at the base of Earth's outer core
suggest the presence of a stably-stratified region known as the F-layer. This raises an …
