Understanding inner core oscillations is key to grasping Earth's rotation variations and magnetic field changes, linking deep processes to surface effects.

The Earth spins at a remarkable speed, approximately 1,600 kilometres per hour at the equator. If this rotation were to cease abruptly, even for a mere second, the consequences would be catastrophic.

Our planet may have had a recent change of heart. Earth’s inner core may have temporarily stopped rotating relative to the mantle and surface, researchers report in the January 23 Nature Geoscience.

I will assume you’re referring to what would happen if Earth stopped rotating all at once, without any gradual reduction in velocity. In that event, most things on Earth would be almost immediately ...
