Although research linking cardiovascular disorders to geomagnetic activity during the past 40 years is accumulating, robust evidence for the effect of geomagnetic activity (the earth’s magnetic field) on stroke occurrence is lacking and remains a matter of controversy. This is because most studies to date are complicated by significant methodological limitations: high likelihood of stroke miscl...

This paper presents a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm of bio-inspired geomagnetic navigation for Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). Inspired by the biological navigation behavior, the solution was proposed without using a priori information, simply by magnetotaxis searching. However, the existence of the geomagnetic anomalies has significant influence on the geomagnetic navigation syst...

[1] The diamagnetic effect generally reduces the magnetic field inside a plasma. Its importance is appreciated in regions like the magnetosphere and the solar wind. In the ionosphere, depletions of the geomagnetic field have up to now been considered negligible. The CHAMP satellite provides for the first time the combination of highresolution magnetic field measurements and plasma density obser...
