Major components of Earth’s magnetic field include
Major components of Earth’s magnetic field include the stronger core field, shown here, and the crustal field. The core field is stronger but varies slowly over time.
The crustal field, shown here, is weaker than the core
The crustal field, shown here, is weaker than the core field, but is fixed and has features that are useful in non-GPS navigation. The intensity of the fields are measured in nano teslas (nT), shown increasing ... More
