The onset of inner core growth and its influence on the geodynamo is still a topic of debate in the literature, varying from the Archean until as late as the Cambrian. Paleointensity data can be used to test the proposed hypotheses since the nucleation of the inner core coincides with the compositional convection in the Earth's core, a process that is expected to stabilize the geodynamo. …
We intend to spend four months at the Imperial College of London, working with Prof. Andrian Muxworthy on the recently developed, non-heating Preisach paleointensity method on well-characterized Precambrian igneous samples from the Amazonian craton. The original project aims at recovering the palaeointensity of the geomagnetic field during the Paleo- to Mesoproterozoic (2.5-1 billion of y…
