Palaeomagnetism and Diagenesis in Sediments

This book contains a co-ordinated series of papers considering how chemical changes in sediments, as they accumulate and lithify, affect their magnetization and how such changes can be monitored by studying their magnetic properties. It is especially relevant to sedimentologists, particularly those in exploration for hydrocarbons and sediment hosted materials, as well as for geophysists using the magnetization of sediments.
