The Earth's internal magnetic field varies on timescales of months to billions of years. The
field is generated by convection in the liquid outer core, which in turn is influenced by the …

After many years spent by paleomagnetists studying the directional behavior of the Earth's
magnetic field at all possible timescales, detailed measurements of field intensity are now …

More than 400 years ago William Gilbert said," The Earth itself is a great magnet." Today, we
know that it is also a great magnetic tape recorder. This work is a comprehensive, up-to-date …

Magnetic Stratigraphy is the most comprehensive book written in the English language on
the subject of magnetic polarity stratigraphy and time scales. This volume presents the …

Paleomagnetic data are useful in many applications in Earth Science from determining
paleocurrent directions to analyzing the long-term behavior of the geomagnetic field. In this …

Paleomagnetism is the study of the fossil magnetism in rocks. It has been paramount in
determining that the continents have drifted over the surface of the Earth throughout …

We have reviewed paleomagnetic data available for the Eurasian, African, North American
and Indian plates over the last 200 Ma. Selection criteria are those generally accepted, with …

This chapter reviews theoretical approaches to calculating the energy and entropy budgets
of the Earth's core. The energy budget allows the growth of the inner core with time to be …

In 1995, two groups [Kageyama et al., 1995; Glatzmaier and Roberts, 1995a, 1995b]
reported results of numerical integrations of fully three‐dimensional, fully nonlinear …

The magnetic field of the Earth is by far the best documented magnetic field of all known
planets. Considerable progress has been made in our understanding of its characteristics …
