Geomagnetic paleosecular variation for the past 1Ma recorded in lava flows from south Ecuador.
Kleber Joshua Sanmartin Atiaga
Abstract:High-quality paleosecular variation studies with good geographical and temporal coverage are crucial for understanding the past Earth's magnetic field behavior. In the southern hemisphere, but especially in southern Ecuador, these data are still scarce. Reliable records that can be obtained from volcanic rocks, specifically from lava flows, are required to create more accurate magnetic field models especially for the southern hemisphere. A total of 196 samples from 23 previously dated lava flows from nine diff… Show more
