Geomagnetic reversal rates following Palaeozoic superchrons have a fast restart mechanism
MW Hounslow - Nature communications, 2016 - nature.com
Long intervals of single geomagnetic polarity (superchrons) reflect geodynamo processes,
driven by core–mantle boundary interactions; however, it is not clear what initiates the start …
