A palaeomagnetic study of Syrian volcanic rocks of Miocene to Holocene age

Miocene and younger volcanic rocks from Syria show both normal and reversed polarities after thermal demagnetisation. Similarities in site mean directions may be used to establish lavas erupted at similar times. The observed polarities suggest that some Quaternary volcanics are older than previously...
