Relative paleointensity (RPI) and age control in Quaternary sediment drifts off the Antarctic Peninsula [PDF]
Lack of foraminiferal carbonate in marine sediments deposited at high latitudes results in traditional oxygen isotope stratigraphy not playing a central role in Quaternary age control for a large portion of the globe. This limitation has affected the interpretation of Quaternary sediment drifts off the Antarctic Peninsula in a region critical for ...

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

The effects of aliasing and lock-in processes on palaeosecular variation records from sediments [PDF]
Studies of sedimentary records of palaeointensity variation report periods as long as 50 kyr. Archaeointensity data show geomagnetic periods of 2 kyr with large ampli-tudes.

Relative paleointensity stack during the last 250 kyr in the northwest Pacific [PDF]
We have conducted a paleomagnetic study of 10 sediment cores recovered from the northwest Pacific. The purpose is to establish a regional paleointensity stack during the last 250 kyrs (NOPAPIS‐250) for global coverage of paleointensity data as well as a regional reference for paleointensity‐assisted stratigraphy.

We present a novel paleomagnetic record for the lower Matuyama chronozone, which includes the Réunion subchronozone and the lower Olduvai polarity reversal, from a continuous section of a 168-m-thick on-land marine succession in the southernmost part of ...

We report a survey carried out on basalt flows from Amsterdam Island in order to check the presence of intermediate directions interpreted to belong to a geomagnetic field excursion within the Brunhes epoch, completing this paleomagnetic record with ...

Cooling rate effects on paleointensity estimates in submarine basaltic glass and implications for dating young flows [PDF]
Cooling rate effects on the intensity of thermoremanent magnetization (TRM) have been well documented in ceramics. In that case, laboratory cooling is generally more rapid than the initial cooling, leading to an overestimate of the paleofield by 5-10% in

Controlled-atmosphere thermal demagnetization and paleointensity analyses of extraterrestrial rocks [PDF]
We describe a system for conducting thermal demagnetization of extraterrestrial rocks in a controlled atmosphere appropriate for a wide range of oxygen fugacities within the stability domain of iron.

A Physical Interpretation of Asymmetric Growth and Decay of the Geomagnetic Dipole Moment
Observations of relative paleointensity reveal several forms of asymmetry in the time dependence of the virtual axial dipole moment (VADM). Slow decline of the VADM into a reversal is often followed by a more rapid rise back to a quasi‐steady state ...

Metallic microstructures in slowly-cooled iron-rich meteorites reflect the thermal and magnetic histories of their parent planetesimals. Of particular interest is the cloudy zone, a nanoscale intergrowth of Ni-rich islands within a Ni-poor matrix that ...
