Continuous sedimentary records of paleomagnetic directional variability and relative paleointensity (RPI) provide valuable information on the evolution of the geodynamo while also facilitating stratigraphic correlation and age control.

A comparison of different techniques for relative paleointensity
Parallel relative paleointensity records that are supposed to display the same geomagnetic variations often show discrepancies. We compared various techniques of normalization with different parameters involving alternating fields (a.f.) and thermal demagnetization of sediment samples spanning the same period from the Indian and the Pacific oceans. The

Relative paleointensity in sediments: A Pseudo‐Thellier Approach
We present a method for normalizing sedimentary records for estimating relative paleointensity of the geomagnetic field, similar to that successfully used to obtain absolute paleointensity from thermally blocked remanences. It has the advantages that it is more effective in removing unwanted viscous remanence, thereby improving agreement among various ...

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.

Origin of orbital periods in the sedimentary relative paleointensity records
Abstract Orbital cycles with 100 kyr and/or 41 kyr periods, detected in some sedimentary normalized remanence (relative paleointensity) records by power spectral analysis or wavelet analysis, have been attributed either to orbital forcing of the geodynamo, or to lithologic contamination.

Piston core LC07, located west of the Sicily Strait in the Mediterranean Sea, unambiguously records the Matuyama/ Brunhes (M/B) and the upper Jaramillo polarity reversals, with similar average sediment accumulation rates (SARs) for the Brunhes Chron (2.

High- and low-latitude climatic processes in the North Pacific Ocean are important components of the global climate system. For example, the interplay among North Pacific atmospheric circulation, ocean circulation, and biological productivity affects ...

A paleomagnetic record in loess–paleosol sequences since late Pleistocene in the arid Central Asia
Geomagnetic excursions during Brunhes epoch have been brought to the forefront topic in paleomagnetic study, as they provide key information about Earth’s interior dynamics and could serve as another tool for stratigraphic correlation among different ...

We present a general theory for the acquisition of natural remanent magnetizations (NRM) in sediment under the influence of (a) magnetic torques, (b) randomizing torques, and (c) torques resulting from interaction forces.
