A magnetic polarity pattern has been constructed for the Early Callovian through Middle Oxfordian stages of the Jurassic from several ammonite-rich magnetostratigraphy sections within the Krakow-Czestochowa-Wielun region of southern Poland. These overlapping sections encompass portions of every ammonite from the late-Early Callovian through late-Middle Oxfordian; however, the presence of several hiatuses and condensed intervals within the shallow-marine to pelagic sediments preclude reliable identification of the complete polarity pattern. The mean Callovian-Oxfordian pole from these sites is at 74.3°N, 200.3°E (α95 = 4.7°).
The Callovian through Early Oxfordian is dominated by reversed polarity with a minimum of five normal-polarity zones. The early-Middle Oxfordian is predominantly of normal polarity, and the late-Middle Oxfordian is characterized by reversed polarity, with several relatively brief normal-polarity episodes. The Callovian and Oxfordian stages appear to average a minimum of two magnetic polarity reversals per million years. This reversal frequency is similar to the average Tertiary record, but is less than the reported spacing of Callovian and Oxfordian magnetic anomalies in the Pacific.
