Behavioral experiments, mostly with migrating passerines, revealed three characteristics of the avian magnetic compass: (1) it works spontaneously only in a narrow functional window around the intensity of the ambient magnetic field, but can adapt to other intensities, (2) it is an "inclination compass", not based on the polarity of the magnetic field, but the axial course of the field lines, and (3) it requires short-wavelength light from UV to 565 nm Green.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=Biosensors&amp;rft.atitle=Sensing+magnetic+directions+in+birds%3A+radical+pair+processes+involving+cryptochrome&amp;rft.volume=4&amp;rft.issue=3&amp;rft.pages=221-42&amp;rft.date=2014&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%2Fpmc%2Farticles%2FPMC4264356%23id-name%3DPMC&amp;rft_id=info%3Apmid%2F25587420&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.3390%2Fbios4030221&amp;rft.aulast=Wiltschko&amp;rft.aufirst=Roswitha&amp;rft.au=Wiltschko%2C+Wolfgang&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%2Fpmc%2Farticles%2FPMC4264356&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AMagnetite" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Kirschvink_1992-55"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-Kirschvink_1992_55-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Kirschvink_1992_55-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Kirschvink_1992_55-2"><sup><i><b>c</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFKirschvink1992" class="citation journal cs1">Kirschvink, Joseph; et&#160;al.

Hence, the presence of trace levels of biogenic magnetite in virtually all human tissues examined suggests that similar biophysical processes may explain a variety of weak field ELF bioeffects.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=Bioelectromagnetics&amp;rft.atitle=Magnetite+in+human+tissues%3A+a+mechanism+for+the+biological+effects+of+weak+ELF+magnetic+fields.&amp;rft.volume=Suppl+1&amp;rft.pages=101-13&amp;rft.date=1992&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fciteseerx.ist.psu.edu%2Fviewdoc%2Fsummary%3Fdoi%3D10.1.1.326.4179%23id-name%3DCiteSeerX&amp;rft_id=info%3Apmid%2F1285705&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1002%2Fbem.2250130710&amp;rft.aulast=Kirschvink&amp;rft.aufirst=J+L&amp;rft.au=Kobayashi-Kirschvink%2C+A&amp;rft.au=Diaz-Ricci%2C+J+C&amp;rft.au=Kirschvink%2C+S+J&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AMagnetite" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-galvanotaxis-57"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-galvanotaxis_57-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFNakajimaZhuSunHegyi2015" class="citation journal cs1">Nakajima, Ken-ichi; Zhu, Kan; Sun, Yao-Hui; Hegyi, Bence; Zeng, Qunli; Murphy, Christopher J; Small, J Victor; Chen-Izu, Ye; Izumiya, Yoshihiro; Penninger, Josef M; Zhao, Min (2015). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4603535">"KCNJ15/Kir4.2 couples with polyamines to sense weak extracellular electric fields in galvanotaxis"</a>. <i>Nature Communications</i>. <b>6</b>: 8532. <a href="/wiki/Bibcode_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Bibcode (identifier)">Bibcode</a>:<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2015NatCo...6.8532N">2015NatCo...6.8532N</a>. <a href="/wiki/Doi_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Doi (identifier)">doi</a>:<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://doi.org/10.1038%2Fncomms9532">10.1038/ncomms9532</a>. <a href="/wiki/PMC_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="PMC (identifier)">PMC</a>&#160;<span class="id-lock-free" title="Freely accessible"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4603535">4603535</a></span>. <a href="/wiki/PMID_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="PMID (identifier)">PMID</a>&#160;<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26449415">26449415</a>. <q>Taken together these data suggest a previously unknown two-molecule sensing mechanism in which KCNJ15/Kir4.2 couples with polyamines in sensing weak electric fields.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=Nature+Communications&amp;rft.atitle=KCNJ15%2FKir4.2+couples+with+polyamines+to+sense+weak+extracellular+electric+fields+in+galvanotaxis&amp;rft.volume=6&amp;rft.pages=8532&amp;rft.date=2015&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%2Fpmc%2Farticles%2FPMC4603535%23id-name%3DPMC&amp;rft_id=info%3Apmid%2F26449415&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1038%2Fncomms9532&amp;rft_id=info%3Abibcode%2F2015NatCo...6.8532N&amp;rft.aulast=Nakajima&amp;rft.aufirst=Ken-ichi&amp;rft.au=Zhu%2C+Kan&amp;rft.au=Sun%2C+Yao-Hui&amp;rft.au=Hegyi%2C+Bence&amp;rft.au=Zeng%2C+Qunli&amp;rft.au=Murphy%2C+Christopher+J&amp;rft.au=Small%2C+J+Victor&amp;rft.au=Chen-Izu%2C+Ye&amp;rft.au=Izumiya%2C+Yoshihiro&amp;rft.au=Penninger%2C+Josef+M&amp;rft.au=Zhao%2C+Min&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%2Fpmc%2Farticles%2FPMC4603535&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AMagnetite" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-58"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-58">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFLovleyStolzNordPhillips" class="citation web cs1">Lovley, Derek; Stolz, John; Nord, Gordon; Phillips, Elizabeth. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170329151927/http://www.geobacter.org/publication-files/Nature_1987_Nov.pdf">"Anaerobic production of magnetite by a dissimilatory iron-reducing microorganism"</a> <span class="cs1-format">(PDF)</span>. <i>geobacter.org</i>.
