An extended period of extremely weak geomagnetic field suggested by palaeointensities from the Ediacaran Grenville dykes (SE Canada)
D Thallner, AJ Biggin, HC Halls - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2021 - Elsevier
Long-term variations of the geomagnetic field, observed in the palaeomagnetic record, have
the potential to shed much light on the evolution of Earth's deep interior. With a geomagnetic …
