The Mesoproterozoic (~1470 Ma) Wolf River batholith (WRB) is exposed over 6500 km2, encompassing 11 plutons that crosscut the Archean Marshfield and Proterozoic Penokean terranes. As the WRB is the classically defined anorogenic batholith, to test this hypothesis, seven igneous phases were analyzed using anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS), as a proxy for magmatic flow during intrusion,…
Data-based geomagnetic models are key for mapping the global field, predicting the movement of magnetic poles, understanding the complex processes happening in the outer core, and describing the global expression of magnetic field reversals. There exists a wide range of models, which differ in a priori assumptions and methods for spatio-temporal interpolation. A frequently used modeling procedu…
