The physics of magnetism -- The geomagnetic field -- Induced and remanent magnetism - Magnetic anisotropy and domains -- Magnetic hysteresis -- Magnetic mineralogy -- How rocks get and stay magnetized -- Appied rock (enviromental) magnetism -- Getting a paleomagnetic direction -- Paleointensity -- Fisher statistics -- Beyond fisher statistics -- Paleomagnetic tensors -- The ancient geomagnetic field -- The GPTS and magnetostratigraphy -- Tectonic applications of paleomagnetism.
This work is a comprehensive, up-to-date textbook on extracting and using rock and paleomagnetic data in archaeological, geological, and geophysical applications. Designed for students and professionals with knowledge of college level physics and some background in earth sciences, it describes both the theory and the practice of paleomagnetism, covering topics such as the basics of magnetism, geomagnetic fields, how rocks become magnetized, and the various ways of analyzing the magnetism of rocks.
