Magnetic fabric, as defined by Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility (AMS) and related anisotropic magnetic properties, can be applied in a great variety of geoscientific investigations. Supported by significant instrumental and statistical advances over the years, magnetic fabric has continued helping illustrate strain in structural settings of different scales and degrees of complexity, sedimentary deposition and compaction processes, igneous intrusive processes at all scales, and the kinematics involving the emplacement of volcanic and volcanoclastic flows. The thorough evaluation of challenging results, such as inverse and composite AMS or the fabric of single crystals, has allowed proposing robust models and reliable interpretations. Magnetic fabrics have also been effectively used in combination with paleomagnetism and environmental magnetism results. This session aims to gather recent contributions that used this versatile technique in varied geologic settings and any novel approaches in the evaluation of magnetic fabric results and their applications.
