New Study Confirms the Rotation of Earth's Inner Core Has Slowed

  • Scientists tracked seismic waves and found the Earth's inner core began to slow down around 2010, previously thought to rotate faster than the surface.
  • From 2008 to 2023, the inner core moved slightly in reverse relative to the mantle.
  • This slowing may cause minor changes in day length but only by fractions of a second.

Length Of A Day Might Change As Earth's Inner Core Slowing Since 2010: Study

A new study has provided "unambiguous evidence" that the Earth's inner core began to slow down its rotation since 2010, compared to the planet's surface. Researchers said that the slowing down could change the length of one day on the Earth by fractions of a second. The Earth's inner core, a solid sphere made of iron and nickel, is suspended within the liquid outer core (made of molten metals) and anchored in its place by gravity. Together, the …

Scientists say they’ve confirmed a slowdown in Earth’s inner core rotation. Now what?

By Mindy Weisberger, CNN (CNN) — Deep inside Earth is a solid metal ball that rotates independently of our spinning planet, like a top whirling around inside a bigger top, shrouded in mystery. This inner core has intrigued researchers since its discovery by Danish seismologist Inge Lehmann in 1936, and how it moves — its rotation speed and direction — has been at the center of a decades-long debate. A growing body of evidence suggests the core’s…
