Scientific paper

The results of a detailed study of a geomagnetic reversal recorded in Middle Miocene marine clays, with temporal resolution almost comparable with that of the volcanic records and, in the authors' opinion, a more reliable chronological control, are reported. The record displays large fluctuations in the rate of directional change and different episodes of collapse and recovery of the field intensity. A very fast N-S directional change may be entirely controlled by a frozen-flux-dominated reversal mechanism.
