Zusammenfassung |
Good quality, well-dated and high resolution palaeomagnetic secular variation records based
on marine sediments are rare, but they are necessary to improve time varying global models
of geomagnetic field development. We took part in the MSM05-3 research cruise with the RV
Maria S. Merian to the western Greenland coast in 2007 and report here the mineral magnetic
and palaeomagnetic properties of selected sediment cores recovered from the Disko
Bay and the Uummannaq shelf. On-board magnetic susceptibility scans show that
the magnetic concentrations of postglacial sediments recovered from the Disko
Bay are relatively low ( |
