Inescapable Conclusion: USC Researchers Prove Earth’s Core Is Losing Speed

A new study provides clear evidence that the Earth’s inner core began to decrease its speed around 2010.
USC scientists have discovered that the Earth’s inner core is slowing down relative to the planet’s surface, a phenomenon that started around 2010 after decades of the opposite trend. This significant shift was detected through detailed seismic data analysis from earthquakes and nuclear tests. The slowdown is influenced by the dynamics of the surrounding liquid outer core and the gravitational pull from the Earth’s mantle, potentially affecting Earth’s rotation slightly.
