Paleomagnetic Studies of Transitional Behavior Recorded in Pleistocene Lavas with Emphasis on Long-Lived Field States

PI将继续探索在夏威夷、社会岛和留尼汪热点以及其他目前正在调查的地区记录的松山时代火山的现场行为。在不同的完成阶段，对六个过渡带的研究对应于在莫洛凯岛、莫雷阿岛和留尼汪岛记录的奥杜瓦伊和留尼汪亚年代之间的事件。对于每次调查，他将进行完整的矢量研究，特别是利用新改进的多标本方法来研究绝对古强度。为了确切地确定所涉及的实际反转，他还将获得迄今为止尚未确定日期的每个剖面的辐射年龄。

The PI will continue exploration of field behavior as recorded in Matuyama-aged volcanics from the Hawaii, Society Island and Reunion hotspots and others currently under investigation. In various stages of completion are studies of six transition zones corresponding to events which bound the Olduvai and Reunion subchrons recorded on the islands of Molokai, Moorea and Reunion. For each investigation, he will conduct complete-vector studies utilizing, in particular new-refined multi-specimen approach to absolute paleointensity. In order to ascertain with certainty the actual reversals involved,m he will also obtain radiometric ages for each thus far undated section.
