On the Negatively Charged Layer of the Earth's Electric Field
Abstract
Based on the hydridic Earth model, we propose a hydridic model of the Earth's electric field. The model predicts that the negative electrode of the Earth's capacitor is located under the Earth's crust and the Earth's fluids carry a positive charge. We have observed an excess of positive charge in the Earth's crust down to kilometer depths. The model explains the unitary variation of the fair-weather atmospheric electric field strength, the change in atmospheric electric field strength and the precipitation of high-energy electrons during earthquakes.
