Editorial: multi-disciplinary applications in magnetic chronostratigraphy
Sediments and sedimentary rocks acquire a primary natural remanent magnetization, called a detrital remanent magnetization when the sub-micron magnetic grains in the sediments settle through the water column or during post-depositional consolidation and align with the geomagnetic field. Measurements of magnetic susceptibility, ARM and IRM, allow the detection of Milankovitch cycles and hence a high-resolution β
