Geomagnetic paleointensities from radiocarbon‐dated lava flows on Hawaii and the question of the Pacific nondipole low

TL;DR: In this paper, the ages of basaltic lava flows on the island of Hawaii were investigated using the Thelliers' method in vacuum and the results showed that the dispersion of virtual geomagnetic poles for the eight lavas is 15.5°, appreciably larger than the average for older lava flows.

Paleo-intensities of the Earth's magnetic field determined from Tertiary and Quaternary rocks

TL;DR: In this article, a variety of rock types from eighteen volcanic units of the western United States were studied by Thellier's method and the NRM-TRM curves were determined, and paleo-intensities are estimated from twelve of the units.

The Determination of Paleo-Intensities of the Earth's Magnetic Field with Emphasis on Mechanisms which Could Cause Non-ideal Behavior in Thellier's Method

TL;DR: In this paper, the NRM-TRM curves were determined by Thellier's method from a variety of volcanic rocks, and they deviated from a straight line over parts of their length, sometimes so much that not even a crude estimate of paleo-intensity can be made.

Long-term variations in palaeointensity

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compile a dataset of reliable palaeointensity estimates based both on published work and on new data from basaltic glass, which more than double the number of reliable (Thellie...

The Steens Mountain (Oregon) geomagnetic polarity transition: 2. Field intensity variations and discussion of reversal models

TL;DR: In this article, Mankinen et al. carried out an extensive paleointensity study of the 15.5±0.3 m.y. Miocene reversed-to-normal polarity transition recorded in lava flows from Steens Mountain (south central Oregon).
