In Canto 22 (in translation from the original)
“Just as dolphins do, when with the arched back, they signal to the seamen to prepare for tempest, that their vessel may be spared.”
AbstractThis is an analysis of how magnetic fields affect biological molecules and cells. It was prompted by a series of prominent reports regarding magnetism in biological systems. The first claims to have identified a protein complex that acts like a compass needle to guide magnetic orientation in animals (Qin et al., 2016). Two other articles report…
There is a lot of work showing that animals can detect magnetic fields but it is important to remember – no moving electric charge, no magnetism. We have spoken of the pineal gland which detects ALL frequencies because of its shape. It is the fundamental shape emerging from two intersecting vortices – in other words…
At a recent meeting of the Royal Institute of Navigation I met Jon Ward. Jon was brought up in Africa as a boy and spent much time roaming the countryside and going to distant villages out of sight of his home. We talked about Animal navigation and I told him that I thought that as…
by Dirk K.F. Meijer1 This is an amazing effort to integrate quantum theory and the real world that we live in. It covers the very interesting ground that suggests that our Universe is actually a Universe of “information” and that the intelligence and creativity of humans adds to the Energy of the Universe and transforms…
This paper is a very good overview of the thinking about avian migratory navigation and acknowledges that birds use all the cues that are available to them to navigate successfully. Magnetic Compass Orientation in a Palaearctic–Indian Night Migrant, the Red-Headed Bunting Summary The earth’s magnetic field, celestial cues, and retention of geographical cues en route…
One of our board members, Antonio Nafarrate, has brought this intriguing piece of news to our attention – snakes in the Everglades can find their way home. As we have always said, there is something going on with animals who find their way home and this is another example. I have a friend, Jill Moss who…
