Rapid Variations of Earth's Core Magnetic Field

V Lesur et al.

Summary: This paragraph discusses the evidence of fast variations in the Earth's core field observed in magnetic observatory and satellite records. It explains how these variations are identified at the Earth's surface and characterized by satellite data. The paragraph also mentions the extraction of their properties at the core mantle boundary through localized and global modeling processes, with emphasis on their time scales. Finally, it lists the possible types of waves in the liquid outer core that may cause these observed fast variations.

Satellite magnetic data reveal interannual waves in Earth's core

Nicolas Gillet et al.

Summary: The Earth's magnetic field displays variations on a broad range of time scales. Through satellite monitoring, we have gained more knowledge about the rapid physical processes in the Earth's outer core. We have identified nonaxisymmetric wavelike patterns in the equatorial region of the core surface, which have large spatial scales and interannual periods of approximately 7 years.

Fast Quasi-Geostrophic Magneto-Coriolis Modes in the Earth's Core

F. Gerick et al.

Summary: The study proposes a hybrid QG model to explain the fast changes in Earth's magnetic field, identifying modes with periods of a few years at parameters relevant to the Earth's core. It demonstrates a concentration of energy in the equatorial region for a simple poloidal magnetic field considered here. The high frequency and energy concentration near the equator make these modes a plausible mechanism for explaining similar features observed in recent geomagnetic field observations.

The interplay of fast waves and slow convection in geodynamo simulations nearing Earth's core conditions

Julien Aubert et al.

Summary: The study uses a geodynamo simulation model to analyze the interactions between slow convective motions and fast hydromagnetic waves in Earth's core, identifying three classes of fluid dynamic and hydromagnetic waves. These waves enrich and flatten the energy density spectrum of geomagnetic acceleration at decadal timescales, providing constraints on the observed frequency power spectrum.

Physics-based secular variation candidate models for the IGRF

Alexandre Fournier et al.

Summary: Each IGRF model includes a secular variation component describing the evolution of the main magnetic field for the next 5 years, with each Gauss coefficient assumed to undergo independent linear evolution. Physics-based forecasts for candidate SV models have increased, driven by satellite data spanning over two decades and progress in numerical modeling of Earth's core dynamics. Rapid geomagnetic variations identified in satellite data can impact the quality of IGRF predictions, necessitating frameworks that incorporate short-term geomagnetic processes.
