PmagPy: Software package for paleomagnetic data analysis and a bridge to the Magnetics Information Consortium (MagIC) Database

TL;DR: The PmagPy software package is described and the power of data discovery and reuse is illustrated through a reanalysis of published paleointensity data which illustrates how the effectiveness of selection criteria can be tested.
Journal ArticleDOI

On improving the selection of Thellier-type paleointensity data

TL;DR: In this paper, a new compilation of standard definitions for paleointensity statistics is presented to help remove ambiguities in their calculation, and the largest-to-date data set of raw pn data from historical locations and laboratory control experiments with which to test the effectiveness of commonly used sets of selection criteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Geomagnetic field intensity: How high can it get? How fast can it change? Constraints from Iron Age copper slag

TL;DR: In this article, the authors constructed a high-resolution archaeointensity record of the Levant from the 11th century to the early 9th century BCE, a period over which the geomagnetic field reached its maximum intensity in Eurasia over the past 50,000 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Geomagnetic intensity spike recorded in high resolution slag deposit in Southern Jordan

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured 342 specimens from 72 samples collected from a 6.1 m mound of well stratified copper production debris at the early Iron Age (12th-9th centuries BCE) site of Khirbat en- Nahas in Southern Jordan.
