Fish, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and even a few mammals rely on magnetoreception for navigation. But the exact mechanism ...

Every holiday season there is a mass migration of humans towards home and family. We use many tools to help us navigate back to the places we’re from — from simple maps to sophisticated GPS — but ...

In 1882, the French Naturalist Camille Viguier was among the first to propose the existence of a magnetic sense. His speculation proved correct. Many animals—from bats, to migratory birds and sea ...

(CN) — Watching hatchling sea turtles take in their new world mere moments before they intently make their way to the sea is an insider’s look at incredible natural perception. Through an awareness of ...

Current theories for magnetoreception have yet to be confirmed, which is why a group of scientists have come up with a new one. A Mercenary Storm Is Gathering | Opinion Why Google Is Really Warning ...

Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) laboratory in Germany have developed e-skin with magnetic-sensing capabilities, which they refer to as magnetoreception. They ...

With a few exceptions primarily at the quantum-physics level, sensors of real-world parameters are inherently analog. The formal designations of the parameters being sensed are fairly clear, such as ...

Scientists are unraveling the mystery of magnetoreception, the ability of animals like birds and sea turtles to navigate using Earth's magnetic field. Research indicates that specialized materials ...

The loggerhead turtle can learn and remember the magnetic signature of an area and does a ‘turtle dance’ when in a location that they associate with food, a study in Nature reports. The research ...
