Changes in the sources, properties and fluxes of mineral aerosol ('dust') have significance
as both indicators and agents of climate change, through radiative, cloud condensation and …

Abstract The Younger Dryas impact hypothesis suggests that multiple extraterrestrial
airbursts or impacts resulted in the Younger Dryas cooling, extensive wildfires, megafaunal …

This book describes the paleomagnetism of sediments and sedimentary rocks, how
sediments and sedimentary rocks become magnetized, and how the physical and chemical …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) produce single‐stranded or multi‐stranded chains of magnetic
nanoparticles that contribute to the magnetization of sediments and rocks. Their magnetic …

Massive stars (M≳ 10 M⊙), which terminate their evolution as core-collapse supernovae,
are theoretically predicted to eject> 10− 5 M⊙ of the radioisotope 60Fe (half-life 2.61 Ma). If …

Unambiguous magnetic mineral identification in sediments is a prerequisite for
reconstructing paleomagnetic and paleoenvironmental information from environmental …

We present a novel technique for quantitative unmixing of primary and secondary
ferrimagnetic minerals in sediments. Hysteresis and high-resolution first-order reversal curve …

The pattern of geomagnetic polarity changes during the Early Carboniferous (Mississippian)
is not known in detail. This information sparsity is addressed by determining a …

The late Asbian appears to mark the initial, well‐documented, onset of far‐field glacio‐
eustatic changes in equatorial Mississippian strata. This work unravels the nature of cyclicity …

The anhysteretic remanent magnetization (ARM) is an important magnetic parameter for
quantifying the concentration of “fine”, mostly sub‐micron ferrimagnetic particles in rocks and …
