Holocene Paleointensity of the Island of Hawai `i From Glassy Volcanics

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2018
This study presents new high‐quality paleointensity records and 14C radiocarbon age determinations from the Island of Hawai `i during the Holocene. Previous studies on Hawai `i use experimental methods and statistical selection criteria that may produce ...

Resolving the Internal Magnetic Domain Structure of Cloudy Zone Tetrataenite

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Recent advances in magnetic imaging can directly capture the internal magnetization of natural and synthetic materials at resolutions <10 nm. This capability opens new possibilities to determine the magnetic domain state of ferromagnetic minerals that are fundamental for recording and retaining paleomagnetic records.

The Culprit of Bias for Paleointensity Estimation in the Shaw‐Type Protocol and an Innovative Calculation Method

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Paleointensity records are vital for understanding the Earth's evolution, but obtaining accurate paleointensity is a challenging task. The Shaw‐type method, a widely‐used paleointensity protocol, produces biased results occasionally despite strict ...

Cryptic Paleomagnetic Complexity in the Ediacaran Egersund Dikes

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The Ediacaran Period (∼635–539 Ma) represents a critical interval in Earth's evolution, yet its paleomagnetic record remains complex and contentious. One of the few Ediacaran paleomagnetic results from Baltica considered robust is a pole from the ca.

Ediacara Obscura: Unveiling Hidden Magnetisations in the Fen Complex, Southern Norway

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Paleomagnetic directions found in Ediacaran (635–539 Ma) rocks are widely dispersed, which has led to conflicting hypotheses about tectonic regimes and geomagnetic field behavior during this period, and raised doubts about the fidelity of the paleomagnetic record.

Age constraints on island-arc submarine basalts from geomagnetic paleointensity

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
High-resolution dating of volcanic rocks is the foundation for understanding the evolution of volcanoes and for estimating possible hazards. However, dating is often difficult for submarine volcanoes, where radiocarbon or other dating is frequently ...

Absolute Thellier paleointensities from Ponta Grossa dikes (southern Brazil) and the early Cretaceous geomagnetic field strength [PDF]

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 2009
We report a detailed rock magnetic and Thellier paleointensity study from ~ 130.5 Ma Ponta Grossa Dike Swarms in Southern Brazil. Twenty-nine samples from seven cooling units were pre-selected for paleointensity experiments based on their low viscosity ...

Paleointensity of the geomagnetic field in the Late Cretaceous and earliest Paleogene obtained from drill cores of the Louisville seamount trail

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2014
Information on the strength of the geomagnetic field is important for understanding the behavior of the geodynamo. Polarity reversal frequency increases toward the late Cenozoic since the end of the Cretaceous Normal Superchron.

Influence of Seasonal Post‐Depositional Processes on the Remanent Magnetization in Varved Sediments From Glacial Lake Ojibway (Canada)

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
The natural remanent magnetization (NRM) of high sedimentation rate sediments provides significant information about paleomagnetic secular variation of the Earth's magnetic field and can also potentially be used for stratigraphy. However, NRM acquisition

Impact Plasma Amplification of the Ancient Mercury Magnetic Field

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Spacecraft measurements of Mercury indicate that it has a core dynamo with a surface field of 200–800 nT. These data also indicate that the northern hemisphere crust contains remanent magnetization likely produced by an ancient magnetic field. The inferred magnetization intensity is consistent with a wide range of paleofield strengths (0.2–50 ...
