Within the GGFC, the SBC is responsible for collecting, archiving, and distributing data related to the core and plays a role in promoting and coordinating research on this topic. The SBC has about twenty members from the fields of geomagnetism, Earth rotation, geodynamo modelling (numerical and experimental), and gravimetry.
