Evidence for Turbulent Magnetic Diffusion in Earth's Core

Abstract Fluctuations in the paleomagnetic field suggest that the dipole decay time is shorter than expected, based on current estimates for the molecular magnetic diffusivity in the outer core. Similar behavior is observed in turbulent dynamo simulations, where the short magnetic field decay time c...
