Notes on paleomagnetic sampling in Iceland.

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Presents various general palaeomagnetic results from Iceland, which may be of use in stratigraphic research, especially in the mapping of polarity zones in the field. It includes estimates of mean magnetization intensities in basalts and angular frequency distributions of remanence directions, as well as a discussion of several problems commonly encountered in stratigraphic correlation using palaeomagnetic methods. Advice on procedures and precautions for this type of research is given, based on experience in several large surveys.-Author
