Earth Planets Space, 51, 261–276, 1999 Secular variation and reversals in a composite 2.5 km thick lava section in central Western Iceland
The direction and intensity of primary remanence has been measured in oriented specimens from 367 lava flows of Late Miocene age in Western Iceland. The lavas which were sampled in 8 overlapping profiles, were generally good material for paleomagnetic measurements. In a 2500-m composite section, at...
