(Worthy News) – The rotation of the Earth’s inner core may be reversing, scientists have found in a study that sheds new light on geological processes occurring deep within our planet.
The results of the research, published in the journal Nature Geoscience, indicate that changes in the rotation of the inner core could take place on a scale of decades. The study’s authors told Newsweek the findings have implications for our understanding of how the core influences the other layers of the Earth.
Our planet consists of several layers. The thin, outer layer, known as the crust, mostly consists of solid rock and is generally around 20 to 30 miles thick in continental areas, although in oceanic regions the average thickness is roughly four miles. [ Source: NewsWeek (Read More…) ]
