Description
This is an animation of the radial field at the core-mantle boundary (European view). Predictions from 3000 BCE to 1990 CE are derived from the conservative CALS3k.4b time-varying geomagnetic field model described by Korte & Constable (2011). Please see this publication for details on the models.
