Magnetic Correlation in Volcanic Districts

Abstract Alternating zones of normal and reverse natural permanent magnetization, each comprising about twenty-five flows, have been found in the Tertiary and Quaternary plateau basalt series of Iceland. The techniques for measuring this permanent magnetization are discussed and some results shown....
