P1:
-geophysicist observed steady & significant weakening of magnetic field.
-if trend continues then magnetic disappear in 1500 yrs.
- Most think it will recover, yet it could be magnetic field reversal.

P2: which scenarios is correct? — A: 3kkm below within the outer core.
- generally accepted magnetic field is generated by motion of electrons. Mechanical —> magnetic energy by dynamo.

P3:
- basic principles well established; universal accepted model not constructed—> present-day field — short-term field behavior.
-to study activity of dynamo— paleomagnetic record: magnetism frozen in rocks.

P4:
- paleomagnetic evidence in 1906 by B: reverse—1960 VZ the reverse idea was accepted.
-Today: fundamental tenet that magnetic exists in normal & reverse state.

P5:
-1960 polarity changes record:
9> reversals in past 3.6 million yrs
730K yrs the most recent one
(the time scale of polarity transitions has since been extended back nearly 170 million years 从那时起,极性转变的时间尺度已经延长到近1.7亿年)

P6:
- paleomagnetic record: reverse not instant, the process takes 1000s yrs
-meaning 98% stable; 2% unstable
-foremost task is chronicle the reverse (shape & intensity)
- the finding ** — geodynamo mechanism
