Summary Although many paleomagnetic directional data are now available, very little is known of the ancient intensity Earth's magnetic field. This paper describes determination Tertiary geomagnetic field using baked contacts (red sandstones, conglomerates and dykes) dykes from Scotland lavas laterites Iceland. The results obtained correspond to a mean dipole moment 4.94 × 1025 gauss. cm3 in 5.34 Iceland. These values contrast with present which 8.0 cm3.

Working out the history of Earth's magnetic field will require a better understanding than now exists ways that rocks in fact obtain and sometimes change their fossil magnetizations. The contribution this paper consists finding correlations between petrology, Curie points, polarities natural magnetization basalt lavas.

In Brief Purpose: To determine whether children with type I osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) exhibit ankle plantar flexor weakness and this correlates physical function. Methods: Twenty adolescents OI 20 age-matched controls (age 6-18 years) participated in a single evaluation session. Data included strength assessment, Gillette Functional Assessment Questionnaire, Pediatric Outcome Collection Instrument (PODCI), Faces Pain Scale—Revised. Results: Ankle was evident the group compared control...

Secondary natural magnetizations have been examined by thermally demagnetizing a variety of rock types mainly Tertiary age from Britain, India and Iceland. The conclusion is that the secondary are most likely to be viscous slowly acquired isothermally in earth's magnetic field. A theory developed which predicts an upper limit temperature needed erase laboratory any magnetization at or near room temperature. This 300°C, observed correct for all except four 123 specimens investigated.It also...

The use of partial alternating field demagnetization and, to a lesser extent, thermal has been found useful as means removing secondary components magnetization from rocks used in certain methods determining paleointensities. During the course this investigation, which was carried out on lavas erupted during historic times, it also learned that remanence characterized by relatively low coercivity possessed blocking temperatures throughout temperature spectrum. On other hand, only coercivity.

A detailed palaeomagnetic investigation has been made of the Mull (Scotland) regional dyke swarm. 165 dykes were sampled in a 7-km section across swarm from Quinish to Ardmore northern Mull. major question arising results is whether cleaned NRM directions for are equivalent original cooling TRM directions. The arises since evidence several lines shows that have experienced considerable hydrothermal alteration, with reheating temperatures averaging 200°C and changes iron titanium oxides...

Interpretation still depends essentially on original field mapping.

Regular lists of palaeomagnetic directional data, which are great benefit to other workers in the field, have been compiled by Irving (1960-1963, 1965) and & Stott (1963). Greater attention is now being paid determinations ancient field intensities; hence it thought that regular tabulation results these would likewise be useful. This first list contains intensities covering historic archaeological time scale available up 1966 December. For present purpose has defined as past 10 OOO years;...

Purpose Ankle sprains are one of the most common injuries in competitive and recreational athletics. Studies have shown that use prophylactic ankle braces effectively reduces frequency athletes. However, although it is generally accepted effective at reducing frontal plane motion, some researchers report design brace may also reduce sagittal motion. The purpose this study was to quantify lower extremity joint contributions energy absorption during single-legged drop landings three conditions...
