"Magnetic Stratigraphy" is the most comprehensive book written in
the English language on the subject of magnetic polarity
stratigraphy and time scales. This volume presents the entirety of
the known geomagneticrecord, 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 historicalbackground and applications of magnetostratigraphy.
Individual chapters on correlation are presented, using changes in
magnetic properties and secular variation.
Key Features

including up-to-date geomagnetic polarity time scales
* Correlates magnetic stratigraphics from marine and non-marine
Cenozoic sequences
* Details reversal history of the magnetic field for the last 350
million years
* Discusses correlation using magnetic dipole intensity
changes
* Up-to-date correlation of biostratigraphy with magnetic
stratigraphy through the late Jurassic
