We conducted a detailed study of natural remanence and rock magnetic properties on three sediment cores from Lake Moreno (Patagonia, Argentina). Based on these measurements, we constructed a relative paleointensity stack for the period 13 24 kyr BP calibrated ages. Rock magnetic properties of the sediment cores showed uniform magnetic mineralogy and grain size, suggesting that they were suitable for relative paleointensity studies. The remanent magnetisation at 20 mT (NRM20 mT) was normalised using the anhysteretic remanent magnetisation at 20 mT (ARM20 mT), the saturation of the isothermal remanent magnetisation at 20 mT (SIRM20 mT) and the low-field magnetic susceptibility (k). Spectral analysis showed that the normalised records were not affected by local environmental conditions. The recorded pseudo-Thellier paleointensity was compared with records obtained from conventional normalising methods. Comparing the paleointensity curves with others obtained previously in other lakes in the area has allowed us to reach reliable conclusions about centennial-scale features.
