The cooling‐rate effect on microwave archeointensity estimates [PDF]
AbstractNew microwave (MW) paleointensity data on historical bricks from Northeast Brazil presented a bias toward higher fields when compared to previous cooling‐rate corrected double‐heating paleointensity estimates; the same relates to the previously reported values for pottery from Southwestern Pacific islands. A simple theoretical approach suggests

New archeointensity data from NW Argentina (1300–1500 CE) [PDF]
A good characterization of the geomagnetic field strength at centennial to millennial time scales in the Southern Hemisphere is particularly crucial to disentangle the long-term evolution of the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), an intriguing geomagnetic feature currently observed at the Earth’s surface.

Magnetic properties and archeointensity determination on Pre-Columbian pottery from Chiapas, Mesoamerica [PDF]
Abstract As part of the effort to establish an archeointensity variation curve for Mesoamerica, 13 archeologically well-identified pottery samples belonging to the Ocozocoautla site (Chiapas) were studied. Analyzed samples consist of ‘ofrenda type’ pottery fragments found in several caves. Three archeological intervals are involved: 450-100 B.

One Hundred Thousand Years of Geomagnetic Field Evolution
Abstract Paleomagnetic records from sediments, archeological artifacts, and lava flows provide the foundation for studying geomagnetic field changes over 0–100 ka. Late Quaternary time‐varying spherical harmonic models for 0–100 ka produce a global view used to evaluate new data records, study the paleomagnetic secular variation on centennial to ...

Abstract The paucity of Southern Hemisphere archeomagnetic data limits the resolution of paleosecular variation models. At the same time, important changes in the modern and historical field, including the recent dipole decay, appear to originate in this region.

Archeointensity study on baked clay samples taken from the reconstructed ancient kiln: implication for validity of the Tsunakawa-Shaw paleointensity method [PDF]
In 1972, a reconstruction experiment of a kiln had been done to reproduce an excavated kiln of the seventh century in Japan. Baked clay samples were taken from the floor surface and −20 cm level, and they have been stored after determinations of the paleomagnetic directions by partial alternating field demagnetizations.

Assessing the Reliability of the Pseudo‐Thellier Estimates in Fired Ceramics and Source Clays
Abstract The geomagnetic field's intensity is key to understanding the Earth's core dynamics and their surface impacts. While the Thellier–Thellier method remains the standard for recovering absolute paleointensity from baked materials, it is time‐consuming and may alter magnetic mineralogy due to heating cycles. The pseudo‐Thellier method offers a non‐

Abstract Unraveling the short‐term behavior of the Earth's past geomagnetic field at regional scales is crucial for understanding its global behavior and, thus, the dynamics of the deep Earth. In this context, obtaining accurate full‐vector geomagnetic field records from regions where archeomagnetic data are absent becomes essential.

Tracing the geomagnetic field intensity variations in Upper Mesopotamia during the Pottery Neolithic to improve ceramic-based chronologies [PDF]
The transdimensional Bayesian method AH-RJMCMC applied to archeomagnetic intensity data available in the Balkans and the Near East allows us to estimate the variations in intensity of the geomagnetic field in Upper Mesopotamia during the 7th and 6th ...
