Geomagnetic Field Behavior Across All Timescales
Session ID#: 161065
Session Description:
Accurate and precise recordings of past geomagnetic field changes are critical to understanding the factors that modulate and sustain the generation of the Earth’s geodynamo. Satellites, geophysical observatories, and historical records provide direct, high-resolution measurements of field behavior over the last several centuries. At longer timescales, paleomagnetic data obtained from volcanic rocks, marine and terrestrial sediments, archeological materials, and speleothems are helpful to investigate the time-varying behavior of the ancient geomagnetic field including jerks, paleosecular variation, excursions, reversals, and ultimately, superchrons. However, the precise age, duration, origin, cyclicity, and fine structure of such geomagnetic field fluctuations remain poorly understood. In this session we invite contributions that deal with geomagnetic field variations on timescales ranging from days to billions of years. We welcome contributions that include recent observational and paleomagnetic data (paleodirections and/or intensities), geomagnetic field reconstructions at both local and global scales, and statistical treatments of geomagnetic field variability.
