A notable decrease in the Earth's magnetic field strength between 591 and 565 million years ago corresponded with a substantial rise in atmospheric and oceanic oxygen levels, suggests a study published in Communications Earth and Environment. Researchers posit that this magnetic weakening may have facilitated the oxygen increase, fostering the evolution of early complex life forms. From 60
