Transdimensional inference of archeomagnetic intensity change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
One of the main goals of archeomagnetism is to document the secular changes of Earth's magnetic field by laboratory analysis of the magnetization carried by archeological artefacts.

An updated archeomagnetic directional variation curve for France over the past two millennia, following 25 years of additional data acquisition

open access: yes, 2020
International audienceNearly 40 years ago, Emile Thellier published an article summarizing the archeomagnetic data he had obtained during his career, which had allowed him to recover the main features of the directional variations of the geomagnetic ...

First archeomagnetic data from Kenya and Chad: Analysis of iron furnaces from Mount Kenya and Guéra Massif

open access: yes, 2020
International audienceThe variation of the Earth's magnetic field over the last millennia is poorly known in Africa, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa that represents less than 1% of the global archeomagnetic dataset. Fourteen iron furnaces from Kenya and

A Hierarchical Bayesian Model for the Global Holocene Geomagnetic Field

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We present a hierarchical Bayesian model of the global geomagnetic field for the last 8,000 years. The model is built solely with thermoremanent records, which include archeomagnetic and volcanic data. Building upon previous work, this model includes fewer approximations and treats model hyperparameters as probabilistic variables.

L’activité métallurgique à l’abbaye de Morimond (Haute-Marne) : nouvel éclairage de la fouille à partir de l’analyse archéomagnétique de deux foyers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Une étude archéomagnétique à des fins de datation a été menée sur deux foyers en carreaux de terre cuite mis au jour sur le site de l’ancienne abbaye cistercienne de Morimond (Haute-Marne). La désaimantation thermique complète des

Reconstruction of Core‐Surface Flows During the Last 3,300 Years

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Understanding the Earth's magnetic field evolution requires examining the fluid flow at the core‐mantle boundary that drives the changes over different timescales. The inversion process to derive core‐surface flow velocities from secular variation data encounters non‐uniqueness issues, necessitating a priori assumptions that yield different ...

Archeointensity Database and Geomagnetic Field Reference Curves for South America Over the Past 5 Millennia

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The study of variations in geomagnetic field intensity over time and space is crucial to understand the evolution of the geodynamo and its interactions with the Earth's surface. In this work, we introduce the SAGEOMAG (South America GEOMAGnetic) database, a comprehensive and updated repository of geomagnetic field intensity records derived ...

Bayesian Inference of Local Paleosecular Variation From Sparse Paleomagnetic Data

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract We introduce a novel Bayesian method to construct local paleosecular variation (PSV) curves. By modeling the geomagnetic field as a Gaussian process, global models can be incorporated as informative prior distributions. Because we use Hamiltonian Monte‐Carlo methods, complex age distributions resulting for example from radiocarbon calibration ...

Brunhes Paleomagnetic Directions and Paleointensities From Northern Hainan Island

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Paleomagnetic studies typically assume that the long‐term, time‐averaged geomagnetic field behaves as a geocentric axial dipole (GAD). While paleodirectional data over the past five million years generally agree with GAD predictions, mid‐to‐low latitude paleointensity records fail to show GAD, with high values from Hawaii.

Cooling Rate Correction in Paleointensity Experiments on Archeological and Geological Materials

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Obtaining accurate estimates of the absolute intensity of the past geomagnetic field (paleointensity) is one of the major challenges in paleomagnetic research. Paleointensity data are typically determined by replacing the ancient thermoremanent magnetization (TRM) acquired in an unknown field with a laboratory TRM acquired under controlled ...
