Rotation in the Southeastern Caribbean Arc (Grenadines) Accommodated by Back‐Arc Basin Inversion

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The Caribbean tectonic plate is typically modeled as a rigid plate moving along discrete plate boundaries. Isolated exposures on islands have long shown that above the Lesser Antilles subduction zone, the plate experienced contractional, strike‐slip, and extensional deformation, but the importance of this deformation remained long unknown ...

Rapid Changes in Strength and Direction of Earth's Magnetic Field Over the Past 100,000 Years

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Previous studies of rapid geomagnetic changes have highlighted the most extreme changes in direction and field strength found in paleomagnetic field models over the past 100 ky. Here we study distributions of rates of change in both time and space. Field

Equatorial paleomagnetic time-averaged field results from 0-5 Ma lavas from Kenya and the latitudinal variation of angular dispersion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Lavas of Pliocene-Pleistocene age were sampled in two regions in Kenya: Mount Kenya on the equator and the Loiyangalani region, east of Lake Turkana, at about 3°N.

Magnetic‐A: The New R‐Based Toolbox for Analysis of Paleomagnetic Data

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Paleomagnetic remanence in rocks and sediments provides a unique means to constrain stratigraphic records in both space and time. This is because of the symmetry of the paleomagnetic field with respect to Earth's spin axis over geological time, and the global synchronicity of magnetic field reversals.

Timescales of mafic magmatic fractionation documented by paleosecular variation in basaltic drill core, Snake River Plain volcanic province, Idaho, USA

open access: yesGeological Society of America Bulletin
The timescales over which fractional crystallization and recharge work in mafic volcano-plutonic provinces is subject to great uncertainty. Currently modeled processes are subject to the scale of measurement: monogenetic basaltic fields accumulate over ...

Late Carboniferous Geomagnetic Field Events Recorded in Post‐Collisional Altenberg–Teplice Caldera, Variscan Belt

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Characteristic remanent magnetizations isolated from the late Variscan Altenberg–Teplice Caldera exhibit paleomagnetic directions, ranging from those consistent with the expected primary Late Carboniferous geomagnetic field to intermediate directions that significantly diverge from the dipole states.

Paleomagnetism of late Cretaceous dykes in the Gangdese belt: New constraints on the position and structure of the southern margin of Asia prior to the India-Asia collision

open access: yesChina Geology, 2023
: This paper report paleomagnetic data from late Cretaceous diorite dykes that sub-vertically intrude granodiorites in the eastern Gangdese belt near the city of Lhasa. Our research goals are to provide further constraints on pre-collisional structure of

Reconstructing Late Pleistocene to Prehistorical Holocene Geomagnetic Field Variations From La Palma Lava Flows (Canary Islands, Spain): Unraveling Viscous Components

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract We present new vector paleomagnetic data from 13 radiometrically dated lava‐flows in southern La Palma (Canary Islands) spanning from 1 to 56 ka, which covers most of the Late Pleistocene to prehistoric Holocene volcanic record in the island.

Robust estimators reveal changing geomagnetic field behaviour through the Cenozoic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Fisher distribution is central to palaeomagnetism but presents several problems when used to characterize geomagnetic field directions as observed in sequences of volcanic rocks.

The effect of speleothem surface slope on the remanent magnetic inclination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Speleothems are of interest for high-resolution reconstruction of the Earth's magnetic field. However, little is known about the influence of speleothem morphologies on their natural remanent magnetization (NRM) record.
