A geomagnetic polarity timescale for the Permian, calibrated to stage boundaries [PDF]
The reverse polarity Kiaman Superchron has strong evidence for at least three, or prob ably four, normal magnetochrons during the early Permian. Normal magnetochrons are during the early Asselian (base CI1r.1n at 297.94+0.33 Ma), late Artinskian (CI2n at

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 ...

Ultrafine-scale magnetostratigraphy of marine ferromanganese crust [PDF]
http://geology.geoscienceworld.org/content/39/3/227.full.pdf+htmlHydrogenetic ferromanganese crusts are iron-manganese oxide chemical precipitates on the seafloor that grow over periods of tens of millions of years.

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.

The paper considers the possibility of determining the age and correlating peat sections by solving the inverse problem of magnetostratigraphy based on the findings of comprehensive (palaeomagnetic, petromagnetic, microprobe, and radiocarbon) studies on ...

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.

Marine tephrochronology: a personal perspective [PDF]
This special volume on marine tephrochronology is remarkable, and timely, because it marks a concerted step towards what might be informally termed ‘phase 3’ of a revolution in Quaternary geosciences that began around 40 years ago.

Magnetofossil Spike During the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum: Ferromagnetic Resonance, Rock Magnetic, and Electron Microscopy Evidence from Ancora, New Jersey, USA [PDF]
Previous workers identified a magnetically anomalous clay layer deposited on the northern United States Atlantic Coastal Plain during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM).
