Rapid Evolution of Volcanic Systems Reflected in Magnetics

by Agnes Kontny 28 February 202324 February 2023

Spatiotemporal magnetic monitoring along with InSAR models is a powerful tool to image magmatic, hydrothermal, and mechanical changes within the volcanic edifice of the Piton de la Fournaise.

Large Geomagnetic Field Changes Recorded by Archeomagnetism

by Agnes Kontny 14 February 202314 March 2023

A rare case of absolute paleointensity data in sub-centennial resolution from an archeological site provide much higher values than predicted by existing magnetic field models.

New Mechanism for “Giant” Greigite Growth in Deep-Sea Sediments

by Agnes Kontny 2 December 202229 November 2022

Understanding greigite formation pathways in sediments is a prerequisite for assessing the marine iron-sulfur-carbon cycle and yield reliable near-syn-sedimentary paleomagnetic records.

Volcanic Creation and Destruction of Temporary Tephra Storage

by Agnes Kontny 1 July 20225 June 2023

Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are a major threat during an explosive volcanic eruption. A new study shows that loose tephra accumulations on volcanic slopes tend to re-mobilize rapidly.

Transmission electron microscope images of diverse synthetic hematite grains were used to explain key domain state and anisotropy signals in first-order reversal curve (FORC) diagrams.

A Step Towards Understanding the Magnetic Properties in Hematite

by Agnes Kontny 26 April 20227 September 2022

Scientists present the most comprehensive available magnetic domain state and anisotropy study for synthetic and natural hematite from first-order reversal curve diagrams.
