Transitional paleointensities from Kauai, Hawaii, and geomagnetic reversal models Transitional paleointensities from Kauai, Hawaii, and geomagnetic reversal models

Previously presented paleointensity results from an R-N transition zone in Kauai, Hawaii, show that field intensity dropped from 0. 431 Oe to 0. 101 Oe while the field remained within 30 degree of the reversed axial dipole direction. A recovery in intensity and the main directional change followed this presumably short period of low field strength. As the reversal neared completion, the...
