description: A collection of Climate research from multiple fields. This is a combination of multiple disciplines to identify missing factors in weather models that make recent climate seem chaotic. This presents evidence and scientific data collaborating the hypothesis. This attempts to explain and identify those unknown variables and an example on one such variable that has begun to effect this planet in last few decades.

This adds to current knowledge base and gives data and explanation and scientific proof for the currently untested claims. These are works is progress but the findings are enough to publish these findings.
description: “Recent exponential increases in hydrological mass and atmospheric moisture are introducing novel inertial instabilities to Earth’s rotation and possibly its orbital path. These instabilities, while subtle in magnitude, operate within a chaotic system where even small perturbations can amplify. The resulting deviations — observed in jet stream patterns, seasonal shifts, and atmospheric ‘stalls’ — may constitute the missing variable in current predictive climate models.”
description: Using physics and known variables we have better ways of getting to truth. In creating the hypothesis, numerous models were used to get baselines for fluid dynamics in my simulations. I have attempted to allow physics to decide the results without attempting to influence bias or introduce assumptions to the model. One model highlights how the core would form in a natural system.

Abstract

This study presents a self-organizing planetary core model based entirely on gravitational and material physics. By removing compositional assumptions, it allows naturally molten planetary systems to sort themselves by density and atomic weight. The model reveals that radioactive elements — such as uranium, thorium, and plutonium — would settle at the planetary center beneath an iron-nickel shell. This structure preserves geophysical observables, including seismic layering and magnetic field generation, while correcting inconsistencies in the traditional iron-core assumption. The model honors physical law without interpretation or simplification.

1. Introduction

Earth’s interior is traditionally modeled as a solid iron-nickel inner core surrounded by a liquid iron-nickel outer core. This interpretation is derived largely from seismic reflection data, but it disregards the natural gravitational sorting behavior of elements in a molten planetary body. In this report, the standard assumptions are removed, and the question is reframed: what would physics dictate in a self-organizing planetary system?

2. Methodology

A selection of elements with relevance to planetary interiors — including hydrogen, oxygen, silicon, magnesium, aluminum, iron, nickel, uranium, thorium, and plutonium — were evaluated using only their atomic weight and density. Each was treated as a free-floating component in a molten planetary sphere, subject only to gravity and fluid dynamics. No chemical assumptions were introduced. Sorting was determined solely by density, simulating the stratification that would occur naturally during early planetary formation.

3. Results

In the resulting stratified structure, the most massive and dense elements — plutonium, uranium, and thorium — migrate to the center of the planetary body. These elements would occupy the innermost region, forming a dense, radioactive metallic core. Above this would form a shell of molten iron and nickel, acting as a conductive and convective layer. Lighter silicates and oxides such as magnesium, aluminum, and silicon would remain in the upper mantle or crust.

4. Discussion

This structure is the natural result of mass sorting under gravity in a molten body. It resolves long-standing inconsistencies in the standard Earth model:



Mass sorting is obeyed: heavier elements sink deeper.

Thermal persistence is explained: radioactive decay generates continuous internal heating.

The magnetic field remains supported: the molten iron-nickel shell retains dynamo properties.

The observational record (seismic, magnetic, thermodynamic) remains consistent.


This model does not eliminate iron or nickel from Earth’s core — it repositions them appropriately above denser radioactive elements. It also proposes no changes to seismic mechanics, only to the underlying identity of the inner mass.

5. Conclusion

This reassessed model proposes no new theory — only a correction of assumption. By allowing physics to determine the outcome without bias, the system settles into a configuration that is both logically sound and observationally valid. A radioactive planetary heart beneath a conductive molten shell offers a physically consistent explanation for long-term planetary behavior, including thermal balance and magnetic field generation.

Earth’s engine is not speculative. It is physical, layered by density, and powered not by residual heat — but by the very matter that gravity put at its center.
