Earth's inner core rotation slowdown confirmed by scientists, based on seismic evidence.
Scientists confirm a slowdown in Earth's inner core rotation, a phenomenon of debate for decades. Earth's deep interior is challenging to observe directly, so seismologists study earthquake wave behavior to learn about the inner core. A growing body of evidence shows the core's spin has changed, but scientists remain divided on the exact implications. Further research is needed to understand the impact of this development on Earth's overall structure and processes.
