Earth Magnetic Field Course

What will I learn?
You will build a rigorous understanding of how Earth's magnetic field is generated, measured, and modelled. The course covers geodynamo theory, crustal magnetisation, and the full suite of geomagnetic measurement techniques used in the field and in observatories. You will learn to work with the International Geomagnetic Reference Field and the World Magnetic Model, applying them through software tools. Temporal variations, geomagnetic storms, and their effects on power grids, GNSS, and drilling operations are examined in detail. The palaeomagnetic record, polarity reversals, and plate tectonic applications round out the scientific foundation. Advanced topics include machine learning approaches to field prediction, magnetic anomaly interpretation, and directional drilling corrections.

Your lessons are perfect. I purchased the one-year package and finally have the opportunity to follow various topics of my interest without needing to change platforms... I thank you for everything you do, I've already recommended you to other people...

I like how the lessons are straight to the point and how I can change chapters and skip content I don't need.

I like the content and the way videos are presented and transcribed, which speeds up the process!

The platform is fast, simple to use. The diversity of content and complementary videos help a lot with learning.
