Paleosecular variations recorded by Holocene-Pleistocene sediments from lake El Trébol (Patagonia, Argentina)

Paleomagnetic studies carried out on six cores from the bottom sediments from lake El Trébol, South Argentina are described. Measurements of directions declination and inclination (D and I) and intensity of natural remanent magnetisation (NRM), magnetic susceptibility at low and high frequency (spec...

Measurements of directions declination and inclination (D and I) and intensity of natural remanent magnetisation (NRM), magnetic susceptibility at low and high frequency (specific, X and volumetric, k), isothermal remanent magnetisation (IRM), saturation isothermal remanent magnetisation (SIRM), back field and anhysteric remanent magnetisation (ARM) were carried out.

Due to their different chronological meaning and their rather bad behaviour as magnetic recorder, these layers were removed from the sequence and the gaps that were produced along the profiles by the removal were closed, obtaining a shortened depth. Radiocarbon age estimates from these cores and from earlier studies allow us to construct a paleosecular variation (PSV) record for the past 24,000 years.
