Although it has been known for almost half a century that migratory birds can detect the
direction of the Earth's magnetic field, the primary sensory mechanism behind this …

Diverse animals can detect magnetic fields but little is known about how they do so. Three
main hypotheses of magnetic field perception have been proposed. Electrosensitive marine …

This is an analysis of how magnetic fields affect biological molecules and cells. It was
prompted by a series of prominent reports regarding magnetism in biological systems. The …

Migratory birds travel vast distances each year, finding their way by various means,
including a remarkable ability to perceive the Earth's magnetic field. Although it has been …

During interplanetary flights in the near future, a human organism will be exposed to
prolonged periods of a hypomagnetic field that is 10,000 times weaker than that of Earth's …

Here is a brilliant book that covers the major aspects of nanomaterials production. It
integrates the many and varied chemical, material and thermo-dynamical facets of …

Earth is one of the inner planets of the Solar System, but–unlike the others–it has an
oxidising atmosphere, relatively stable temperature, and a constant geomagnetic field …

This paper reviews the directional orientation of birds with the help of the geomagnetic field
under various light conditions. Two fundamentally different types of response can be …

Animals use the geomagnetic field and astronomical cues to obtain compass information.
The magnetic compass is not a uniform mechanism, as several functional modes have been …

Simple Summary The Earth's magnetic field is vital for life to exist. If the field becomes
weaker, it's known as hypomagnetic conditions. Studying the impact of hypomagnetic …
