Further evidence for a strong intermediate state of the palaeomagnetic field
Both the magnitude and direction of the palaeomagnetic field have been determined during the Lousetown Creek polarity transition. The results, which agree with previous work, show that the geomagnetic field can change in magnitude without changing direction when the virtual geomagnetic pole is close...

Summary: | Both the magnitude and direction of the palaeomagnetic field have been determined during the Lousetown Creek polarity transition. The results, which agree with previous work, show that the geomagnetic field can change in magnitude without changing direction when the virtual geomagnetic pole is close to the equator. |
