What do cakes and Earth's continental crust have in common? They both need time to mix. For continents, that means hundreds of millions of years. Earth's continental crust may have begun forming hundreds of millions of years earlier than previously thought, Yale scientists say - and the reason will be obvious to anyone who has ever baked a cake or a batch of cookies.
Compass readings that do not show the direction of true north and interference with the operations of satellites are a few of the problems caused by peculiarities of the Earth's magnetic field.
In the new study, scientists built a database of global atmospheric river events from 1980 to 2020, using a computer algorithm to automatically identify tens of thousands of the events in the Modern-Era Retrospective analysis for Research and Applications, version 2 ( MERRA-2 ), a NASA re-analysis of historical atmospheric observations.
