Geomagnetic constraints on stratification at the top of Earth’s core
The geodynamo requires that at least part of the Earth’s liquid core be convecting so vigorously as to mix it thoroughly to uniform composition and adiabatic temperature. It is possible, however, that part of liquid core is stably stratified, either thermally because of a low temperature gradient or...
