Article Synopsis
- Some animal species use the Earth's magnetic field, alongside other senses, for long-distance navigation, suggesting they rely on magnetic signatures for localization.
- There is still uncertainty about how these animals translate magnetic signatures into directional guidance.
- Research using modeling and simulation has effectively shed light on this navigation process, revealing that magnetic signatures could indeed play a significant role in how animals navigate through various environments.
