Biomagnetostratigraphy of the Vikinghogda Formation, Svalbard (Arctic Norway), and the geomagnetic polarity timescale for the Lower Triassic

A biomagnetostratigraphy for the Lower Triassic is constructed, using the ammonoid biostratigraphy from Arctic Boreal successions. Combined thermal and alternating field demagnetization determines the Triassic magnetic field polarity in 86% of specimens, with 36% showing linear trajectory line fits...
