Archeomagnetic Intensity Spikes: Global or Regional Geomagnetic Field Features?
Variations of the geomagnetic field prior to direct observations are inferred from archeo- and paleomagnetic experiments. Seemingly unusual variations not seen in the present-day and historical field are of particular interest to constrain the full range

Archaeointensity study of five Late Bronze Age fireplaces from Corent (Auvergne, France) [PDF]
International audienceRecent excavations at Corent (France) unearthed a vast Late Bronze Age settlement. The high density of fireplaces especially highlights it. The present study focuses on the archaeomagnetic study of five fireplaces.

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 ...

The impact of geomagnetic spikes on the production rates of cosmogenic 14C and 10Be in the Earth's atmosphere [PDF]
We seek corroborative evidence of the geomagnetic spikes detected in the Near East ca. 980 BC and 890 BC in the records of the past production rates of the cosmogenic nuclides 14C and 10Be.

Explosive activity of the summit cone of Piton de la Fournaise volcano (La Réunion island): A historical and geological review [PDF]
International audienceSummit explosive activity and collapses that form pit craters and calderas represent major volcanic hazards on a dominantly effusive, frequently active volcano like Piton de la Fournaise.

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
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 ...

Abstract The present‐day geomagnetic field at Earth's surface is characterized by an anomalously weak region known as the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA). Numerical dynamo simulations with an imposed outer boundary heat flux pattern inferred from lowermost mantle seismic anomalies reproduce well the longitude of the SAA, but the latitudes of the modeled ...
