We report a survey carried out on basalt flows from Amsterdam Island in order to check the presence of intermediate directions interpreted to belong to a geomagnetic field excursion within the Brunhes epoch, completing this paleomagnetic record with ...

The Lino Site: A Stratified Late Archaic Campsite in a Terrace of the San Idelfonzo Creek, Webb County, Southern Texas [PDF]
Archeologists from TRC Mariah Associates Inc. of Austin conducted mitigation excavations at the Lino site (41WB437) during a six-week period in April and May 1998 under contract with the Texas Department of Transportation, Environmental Affairs Division.

An archeomagnetic example of polyphase magnetization.
An unusual archeological example of multiple heating leading to superimposed thermoremanent magnetizations (TRM's) is described. The samples involved are roof-tiles which have been incorporated into the floor of a 6th century A. D. kitchen oven at a site near Potenza in southern Italy. Up to 300°C, thermal demagnetization reveals a pattern of diverging

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 ...

Perspectivas de los estudios de arqueomagnetismo en Sudamérica [PDF]
Archaeomagnetism is the study of past geomagnetic field variations using bricks, pottery and campfire stones. This is a multidisciplinary work in which archaeologists, historians and geophysicists play important roles.

Abstract The Cretaceous Normal Superchron constitutes an enigmatic ∼37‐Myr interval of stable polarity in the history of the Earth's magnetic field. The strength of the geomagnetic dipole moment during this interval is controversial, with absolute paleointensity determinations on crystallized volcanic rocks, volcanic glasses, and silicate crystals ...

Abstract We report the results of a rockmagnetic study of tephra material produced by the Tajogaite volcano, in La Palma (Canary Islands), during 19 September through 13 December 2021. Our magnetic analysis reveals a change of rock magnetic properties through the eruption.

While processes that lead to recording magnetic information in stone and ceramic artifacts have been extensively investigated, the preservation of archeomagnetic signal after the artifacts have been abandoned has received much less attention.

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‐
