Skeletons of hermatypic corals (e.g., Porites) might have enormous potential as a high-resolution paleomagnetic recorder owing to their rapid and continuous growth over hundreds of years at a rate of up to 2 cm/year, although typical corals show an ...

Critical single-domain/multidomain grain sizes in noninteracting and interacting elongated magnetite particles: Implications for magnetosomes [PDF]
The critical size for stable single-domain (SD) behavior has been calculated as a function of grain elongation for magnetite grains using a numerical micromagnetic algorithm.

The Identification and Interpretation of Microbial Biogeomagnetism [PDF]
Microbial activity plays a major role in the sedimentary iron cycle. Some microbes gain energy by reducing or oxidizing iron and thus induce changes in the sedimentary iron mineral assemblage.

Controlled biomineralization of magnetite (Fe3O4) by Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense [PDF]
Results from a study of the chemical composition and micro-structural characteristics of bacterial magnetosomes extracted from the magnetotactic bacterial strain Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense are presented here.

Functional analysis of the magnetosome island in Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense: the mamAB operon is sufficient for magnetite biomineralization [PDF]
Bacterial magnetosomes are membrane-enveloped, nanometer-sized crystals of magnetite, which serve for magnetotactic navigation. All genes implicated in the synthesis of these organelles are located in a conserved genomic magnetosome island (MAI).
