Short timescale core dynamics: theory and observations
Fluid motions in the Earth's core produce changes in the geomagnetic field (secular
variation) and are also an important ingredient in the planet's rotational dynamics. In this …

Quasi-geostrophic flows responsible for the secular variation of the Earth's magnetic field
We present core flows constructed from high resolution secular variation (SV) models for the
epochs 2001, 2002.5 and 2004, assuming that these flows are quasi-geostrophic in the core …
