Geomagnetic Dipole Changes and Upwelling/Downwelling at the Top of the Earth's Core
The convective state of the top of Earth's outer core is still under debate. Conflicting evidence from seismology and geomagnetism provides arguments for and against a thick stably stratified layer below the core-mantle boundary. Mineral physics and cooling scenarios of the core favor a stratif...
