A temporal field or time field was applied to a number of temporal phenomenon that had different properties in different situations.
The Third Doctor's time sensor detected disturbances in the time field, serving as a means of locating the Master's TARDIS. (TV: The Time Monster) The Sixth Doctor stated his TARDIS possessed a temporal field, and even called a residual TARDIS trace as a resonating time field; (AUDIO: The Four Doctors) he used his TARDIS to create a competing time field to prevent a Dalek time machine from dematerialising, which constituted the TARDIS and Dalek ship trying to materialise at the same co-ordinates in the Time Vortex. (AUDIO: Patient Zero) The Doctor was sensitive to disturbances in time-fields, (COMIC: Ophidius) feeling a tickling at the top of his spine, like someone walking over his grave. Ace felt she could detect temporal disturbances because she had crossed the time field so much. (PROSE: Set Piece)
Axos attempted to penetrate the time field and gain time travel. (TV: The Claws of Axos) The temporal manipulation achieved by Whitaker involved the use of a time field for the reversal of time. (TV: Invasion of the Dinosaurs) Romana I mentioned a time field while figuring out how to disable Zanak. (TV: The Pirate Planet)
Fyodor Nikolai Kerensky's experiments caused breaks in the time field, which were later exploited by Scaroth to travel roughly 400-milion years in time. The Fourth Doctor speculated that only he and Romana II could sense that something was wrong with time as both had "crossed the time fields" often. Scaroth's device was capable of creating an unstabilised time field, volatile enough to destroy the whole city of Paris, having already accelerated the time field to age Kerensky to death in mere seconds. (TV: City of Death) (TV: City of Death)
Folly's prison had a time field that made would-be escapees experience time longer: one minute outside the field was a week within the field. Elliptical warp drives would spasm within the field. (AUDIO: Doing Time)
According to Borusa, an electro-temporal field could aid communication, and allow for a form of telepathy. (TV: The Invasion of Time)
Sacrificing his life, Jamie McCrimmon destroyed a worldshaper, creating a time field that fast-evolved Marinus into Mondas with aeons passing in minutes across the planet. (COMIC: The World Shapers) Disruptions in Earth's temporal field threw off a series of parallel Earths, also helped by an attempt to mask the planet with a time-field. (COMIC: 4-Dimensional Vistas) Monan was caught in a rupture of temporal radiation and split into multiple variations all occupying the same co-ordinates. The most advanced of the various Monan civilisations was able to control the shifting time fields and conquer/rehabilitate their ancestors. (AUDIO: Square One) Jodafra believed the Horde had manipulated the temporal fields around Oblivion, erasing it from the memory of the universe. (COMIC: Oblivion)
The Library on Kar-Charrat was protected by a time barrier projected by a time field generator; (AUDIO: The Genocide Machine) the perimeter of a time loop was interchangeably referred to as a time field, time threshold, and time barrier. (AUDIO: The Feast of Axos) The Garvond hoped to feed on and ravage the "field of times." (PROSE: The Dimension Riders)
The skull of Vilus Krull existed in a para-chronic time field, meaning it existed partially outside of the continuum. (AUDIO: The Dark Flame) The Windigo, described as a "Time Manipulator," was able to paralyse time-fields with its scream, effectively freezing people between seconds. (COMIC: Bad Blood)
The time fields of Skaro were out of alignment when the planet was put into a time lock, causing various time jumps between the different times. (AUDIO: The Lights of Skaro)
The time field was among the various defences employed by the Time Lords to protect Gallifrey. Bennus noted that none of Gallifrey's defences, including the time field, would be able to withstand the impact of the Thousand Worlds which the Daleks planned to forcibly crash into Gallifrey at fifty times the speed of light. (AUDIO: The Heart of the Battle) The Time Lords had earlier used time-fields around Skaro to control the timeline during the Fourth Doctor's interference in the creation of the Daleks. (TV: Genesis of the Daleks, PROSE: A Device of Death)
Charley Pollard described a time fissure as a crack in time, (AUDIO: The Time of the Daleks) with the Tenth Doctor's TARDIS falling through a "crack in time" which led to Pete's World. (TV: Rise of the Cybermen) Skak's attempts to release Ephnol from his temporal imprisonment caused a crack in time. The crack caused the temporal displacement of both the house of John O'Brien in 2009 and a Victorian house from 1884, swapping them. The Bannerman Road gang helped Deathy to close it before it spread all over the world. (AUDIO: The Ghost House)
While trying to work out how Donna Noble had appeared in his TARDIS, the Tenth Doctor speculated that something in the temporal field, perhaps a subatomic connection, had pulled her in. He also thought it may have had something to do with the TARDIS' chronon shell or interior matrix. (TV: The Runaway Bride)
Jack Harkness was aware that Cardiff Space-Time Rift brought cracks in time. When Owen Harper used the Rift Manipulator to open the rift, these temporal cracks were widened. (TV: End of Days)
