Powering Earth’s ancient dynamo with silicon precipitation
Earth’s core has produced a global magnetic field for at least the last 3.5 Gyrs, presently sustained by inner core growth. Models of the core with high thermal conductivity suggest potentially insufficient power available for the geodynamo prior to inner core formation ∼1 Ga. Precipitation of silic...
