Simulation of a magnetic field reversal on Earth
Model of geomagnetic field reversal. Third of three frames showing the magnetic field structure produced by a numerical simulation of the geodynamo, the source of the Earths magnetic field. Here, the simulation has run for 40, 000 years, and is seen after a field reversal. The colours represent field lines with outward (yellow) and inward (blue) components. Magnetic field reversals are a feature of Earths history, and are recorded in rocks near mid-ocean ridges. This image is from a paper published in Nature in September 1995.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a simulation of a magnetic field reversal on Earth, offering us a glimpse into the intricate structure and dynamics of our planet's geomagnetic field. The image represents the third frame in a series, revealing the mesmerizing pattern produced by a numerical simulation of the geodynamo - the source behind Earth's magnetic field. After running for an astounding 40,000 years, this simulation captures the aftermath of a magnetic field reversal. The vibrant colors depicted in this artwork symbolize different components of the magnetic field: yellow lines represent outward components while blue lines represent inward ones. Magnetic field reversals have played an integral role throughout Earth's history and are preserved within rocks near mid-ocean ridges. This particular image was published in Nature back in September 1995 as part of groundbreaking research shedding light on these fascinating phenomena. As we gaze upon this remarkable illustration, we are reminded of both art and science intertwining to unravel nature's mysteries. It serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge about our planet and its complex systems. Let this visual masterpiece inspire curiosity and appreciation for Earth science, magnetism, and all that lies beneath our feet - reminding us that there is still so much more to discover about our wondrous world.
