Results of magnetostratigraphic study of the Lower Syzran subformation (Paleocene) in the north of the Saratov Right Bank (Gremyachka and Kluchy-2 sections) [PDF]
The results of petromagnetic and paleomagnetic studies of two sections of the Lower Syzran subformation (Paleocene) – Gremyachka and Klyuchi-2, located in the north of the Saratov Right Bank and represented by weakly magnetic silicites, are ...

A jackknife for magnetostratigraphy
We investigate the problem of evaluating the reliability of a magnetostratigraphic section using a jackknife resampling scheme. We define a parameter, J as the slope relating the percentage of polarity zones of a sampled section remaining after random deletion of sites increasing in proportion to a total of 20% of the initial collection.

Magnetostratigraphic Chronology of a Cenozoic Sequence From DSDP Site 274, Ross Sea, Antarctica
New paleomagnetic results from the late Eocene-Middle Miocene samples from Deep Sea Drilling Project Site 274, cored during Leg 28 on the continental rise off Victoria Land, Ross Sea, provide a chronostratigraphic framework for an existing paleoclimate ...

The Cenozoic tectonic evolution of the southeastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau is interpreted in terms of two alterative dynamic mechanisms: lateral extrusion of coherent lithospheric blocks and viscous lower crustal flow.

Late Devonian time was a period of rapid upheaval in the Earth system, including climate change, sea level changes, widespread ocean anoxia, and the Frasnian-Famennian mass extinction; the cause(s) of these changes remain(s) uncertain.

Magnetostratigraphic and biostratigraphic synthesis of ocean drilling program Leg 105: Labrador Sea and Baffin Bay [PDF]
During Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 105, three sites (Sites 645 through 647) were drilled in Baffin Bay and the Labrador Sea to examine the tectonic evolution and the climatic and oceanic histories of this region.

The Corinth basin (Greece) is a young continental rift that recorded cyclic basin paleoenvironment variations (i.e., marine to lacustrine) caused by glacio-eustatic sea level fluctuations during its initial connection to the global oceans.

Magnetostratigraphy and Radiometric Chronology
This paper briefly reviews the history and present status of magnetostratigraphy, and re-examines the usefulness of magnetostratigraphy in absolute chronology. At present, two different kinds of time scale are used as standards for magnetostratigraphic age determination.
