“…We have more than 30 lavas with well-defined polarity at Mahabaleshwar (Table 1), and P(T, n, 0)+P(T, n, 1) is less than 0.05 for any T larger than Although the polarity time scale for about to m.y. has been well established by the consistency of data from dated volcanic rocks, deep-sea cores and magnetic Iineation over the ocean (Cox, 1968), it is still ambiguous for the older periods. The only data we have at present come from magnetic anomaly charts from different oceans (HEIRTZLER et al, the figure indicate n. (a) P(T ; n, 0) and (b) P (T; n, 1) of 45-70 m.y.…”
