42,000-Year-Old Trees Enable Accurate Analysis of Earth’s Last Magnetic Field Reversal – Brinkwire
Radiocarbon measurements on the remains of 42,000-year-old New Zealand kauri trees provide the basis for better calibration of geological archives of this period.
The last complete reversal of the Earths magnetic field, the so-called Laschamps event, took place 42,000 years ago.
