    I see that the strength of the earths magnetosphere has decreased 40% in the last 50 years or so. So I have a couple of questions on my mind I am hoping people can assist me with.

    1) What role does the magnetosphere play in protecting our atmosphere?

    2) What are the functions of the magnetosphere? How does it interact with the earth and its climate?

    3) What effects does the current magnetic pole flip have on the magnetosphere?

    4) One of the examples I read up on the Internet about the pole flips showed a simulation whereby there would be 'whirlwind' like vortex`s in the magnetosphere with many small "poles" Are the Bermuda triangle and the South Atlantic anomaly examples of this?

    Thanks for your time.

    Well, here is a clincher, in a magnetic pole reversal the earth will collaspe, meaning shrink in diameter, it appears in the general range from 26 miles to
    800 miles( 40 to 80miles).

    The earth has more than oone magnetic feild the major feild which exstends into space and the nuclear feild which is only about 40 miles.The magnetic feild that exstends into space is generated by other than the nuclear feild and so humans will still have a nuclear feild.

    the magnetic pole reversal is quite chaotic.

    1) What role does the magnetosphere play in protecting our atmosphere?

    Answer: More than science has documented. In fact the magnetosphere maintains a stable earth surface. This effect is due to a wobble the earth generates 24 hours per day (all the time), without the magnetosphere the wobble would become unstable and produce a collapse of the crust in more than one location.

    2) What are the functions of the magnetosphere? How does it interact with the earth and its climate?

    Answer: The magnetosphere is a resulting situation of the crust changes in relation to the poles of the body. The climate has no magnetic proposition, while this is not significant in nature, the realm is a presurization difference in higher magnetic fieldlines while a difference of closer contact is less distinct fieldlines and chaotic. much to the object is the formulation of energy becoming greater at higher altitudes and therefore more deadly, and these do change and become the founding of storms.

    3) What effects does the current magnetic pole flip have on the magnetosphere?

    Answer: Changes of the flip(s) on the surface are chaotic, this changes with increases of altitude for the magnetosphere soon become a stable field with straight lines instead of bent fieldlines closer to the surface. Some locations of the earth will have an abundance of loadstone masses while others have none and this is a severe chaotic state the earth endures.

    4) One of the examples I read up on the Internet about the pole flips showed a simulation whereby there would be 'whirlwind' like vortex`s in the magnetosphere with many small "poles" Are the Bermuda triangle and the South Atlantic anomaly examples of this?

    Answer: Not in any way or fashion, literally theres a chance of such defines but formally there are no such anomalies that will create magnetic poles within a atmosphere or a whirlwind that has poles within it.

    Defining this change of the earth:

    Earth changes are evolution, based on the past hits from external objects of space (the external force) has created a chaotic state that did not return to a normal following the changes made to the crust. In fact our earth may be losing some of its magnetic properties as a result of volcanic eruptions which then have caused earthquakes beneath the oceans that are exposing changes of the magnetic polar surfaces and directions and this is a severe problem that is a major influence to Global Warming. Fueling the fire of Global warming not from the eruption itself but from the destruction of the earth crust and changing the magnetosphere of the earth. Notice the sun and its solar plexus, is that not the extreme of a choatic state which a earth like planet could evolve. The atmosphere is a system that has many influences, the magnetosphere in merely one of those influences, a few more are more disasterous and need no mention here.

    Err... the Earth will collapse? There have been reversals in the past.

    I know it seems like I'm picking you out, but seriously. I don't get anything you say.

    The magnetic field is created in the liquid core of the planet and global warming has no effect on the field. The fact that the field is slowly beginning to flip is probly a large part of the global warming. As eddies in the molten core switch polarities the field will weaken letting more solar energy though. If the field takes too long to flip, as it is doing now with us, there is a chance that the field will become too weak to protect us to the level that we are accustomed to. This will cause more outbreaks of cancer and other abnormalities. Once the poles switch the general idea is that the field will reach 100% again, far more then it was 50 years ago, as it would have last been probly four to five hundred thousand years ago before the last switch. Now the question is will this push us into another ice age.

    Its definitely decreasing...

    I think it will cause a climate change... or mini ice age or whatever. Just before previous climate shifts such as this one, "dirt increase" in the atmosphere increased, and there was a massive cool down...

    Sir,

    Where did you get this information? Can you cite an article? I am convinced the convergence of regional winds in the Southern Hemisphere towards Antarctica is the direct result of variations in the magnetic field line density and intensity, likewise for the arctic. Please inform.

    You're asking a question from a member who ain't been here in 7 years.
    Good luck with that.

    Thanks, I actually signed up for this site to comment . . . Oh well. I wish I could find a source for that as I wrote to the gentleman from University of Washington who published the paper on the convergence of winds and Antarctic sea ice extent to ask him about the correlation between the magnetospheric/atmospheric coupling. He said it was out of his field of expertise. I wrote to Nasa to no avail, and little could be gotten from AMS, or NOAA. I did fond some simple stuff at few universities but that was all theoretical work on the magnetosphere. I am so anxious to start seeing the ESA data to start in full. I am convinced the moderate climatic trends are partially attributable to fluctuations in the magnetic field and it's various "poles" and their respective intensities/densities. But thanks for responding. I was just hoping.

    Yeh, me too.
    The action(s) of the magnetosphere, and it's complex sources is a fascinating subject.
    Not too long ago a reversal, or wandering poles were assumed to proceed very slowly, which is not the current view.
    What role the charged cratons will play during the times of magnetic chaos remains an unfinished mystery.
