Though you might think that compasses will always point towards the geographic north pole, the magnetic and geographic poles ...

“Polarity reversals occur during periods of low geomagnetic field intensity, during which the intensity of the dipolar ...

There are two types of poles on Earth: the geographic and magnetic poles. The geographic North Pole "stays at the same place, as it is where all lines of longitude converge," while the magnetic North ...

Pigeons, bats and sea turtles, for example, appear to sense the geomagnetic field via magnetic particles. Behavioural experiments can distinguish between different mechanisms of magnetoreception ...
