TLDR
Two large-diameter cores from the Greater Antilles Outer Ridge have confirmed the Blake episode 0.1 m.y.p. as discussed by the authors as a genuine paleomagnetic reversed interval at least in that region.About:

Sedimentary records of relative paleointensity of the geomagnetic field: Theory and practice
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that sedimentary magnetizations varied in accordance with the magnetic field, albeit not always in a simple, linear fashion, and these results spurred the hope that variations in the Earth's magnetic field might indeed be recoverable from appropriate sedimentary sequences.

Revised geomagnetic polarity time scale for the interval 0–5 m.y. B.P.
TL;DR: A change in the constants used in K-Ar dating and a significant increase in new data have made a recompilation and recomputation of data used to define the Late Cenozoic KAr polarity time scale highly desirable at this time as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new rock‐magnetic approach to selecting sediments for geomagnetic paleointensity studies: Application to paleointensity for the last 4000 years
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the DRM/ARM ratio of detrital remanent magnetization to anhysteretic remanent magnetic magnetization (DRM/ARM) for sediment samples to measure relative geomagnetic paleointensity.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Quaternary geomagnetic instability time scale
TL;DR: The Geomagnetic Instability Time Scale (GITS) as discussed by the authors is based on direct dating of transitional polarity states in lava flows using the 40Ar/39Ar method, in parallel with astrochronologic age models of marine sediments in which oxygen isotope and magnetic records have been obtained.

Atlantic Deep-Sea Sediment Cores
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a detailed analysis of seafloor sediment cores from the Atlantic and Caribbean deep-sea cores, showing that the sediment layers are interbedded with late Pleistocene sediments of abyssal facies and commonly contain organic remains of shallow water origin.

Geomagnetic Reversal in Brunhes Normal Polarity Epoch
Jerry D. Smith,John H. Foster +1 more
TL;DR: The magnetic stratigraphly of seven cores of deep-sea sediment established the existence of a short interval of reversed polarity in the upper part of the Brunches epoch of normal polarity, named the Blake event.
