Paleomagnetism: Unlocking Earth's Magnetic History Through Rock Magnetism

Author(s): Anthony Blaise

The study of paleomagnetism has revolutionized our understanding of Earth's magnetic history. By analyzing the magnetic properties of rocks, scientists can uncover valuable information about the past behavior of Earth's magnetic field. This field of study, known as paleomagnetism, has provided insights into plate tectonics, continental drift, geomagnetic reversals, and even the movement of continents over millions of years.
