Earth's Magnetic Field Strength and the Cretaceous Normal Superchron: New Data From Costa Rica
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 22, Issue 4, April 2021., 2021 Abstract Constraining the long‐term variability and average of the Earth's magnetic field strength is fundamental to understanding the characteristics and behavior of the geomagnetic field. Questions remain about the strength of the average field, and the relationship between strength and reversal frequency, due to the dispersion of data from key time ...

Environmental heterogeneity dynamics drive plant diversity on oceanic islands
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 47, Issue 10, Page 2248-2260, October 2020., 2020 Abstract Aim The General Dynamic Model (GDM) links island biogeographical processes to island geological history. A key premise of the GDM implies that environmental factors shaping the ecology and evolution of biota on oceanic islands follow a hump‐shaped trend over the island's life span and drive dynamics in carrying capacity, species diversity and ...
