This volume presents the entirety of the known geomagnetic record, which now extends back about 300 million years. The book includes the results of current research on sea floor spreading, magnetic stratigraphy of the Pliocene and Pleistocene, and postulations on the Paleozoic. Also included are both historical background and applications of magnetostratigraphy. Individual chapters on correlation are presented, using changes in magnetic properties and secular variation. It discusses pioneering work in the use of marine sediments to investigate the Earths magnetic field; and serves as a guide for students wishing to begin studies in magnetostratigraphy. It provides a comprehensive guide to magnetic polarity stratigraphy including up-to-date geomagnetic polarity time scales. It correlates magnetic stratigraphics from marine and non-marine Cenozoic sequences. It details reversal history of the magnetic field for the last 350 million years. It discusses correlation using magnetic dipole intensity changes; and includes up-to-date correlation of biostratigraphy with magnetic stratigraphy through the late Jurassic.
