The 15 pages that link to Magnetostratigraphy, each with the reason it gives.

• PaleomagnetismRelated: Applies the polarity record to build dated stratigraphic sequences.

• Geologic time scaleRelated: Polarity reversals provide markers that can be matched across distant rock records.

• BiostratigraphyCompared with: It correlates magnetic polarity patterns rather than fossil succession.

• Geomagnetic reversalRelated: Polarity changes provide recognizable markers in geological sequences.

• Chinle FormationRelated: Magnetic reversals help correlate Chinle strata where direct dates are sparse.

• ChronostratigraphyRelated: Reversals in Earth’s magnetic field provide time markers for matching strata.

• LithostratigraphyCompared with: Magnetic polarity can correlate rocks across changes in lithology.

• Stratigraphic correlationRelated: Reversals in Earth's magnetic field form recognizable sequences that can match otherwise dissimilar strata.

• Earth's outer coreRelated: Polarity reversals recorded in rocks trace changes in the field generated by the outer core.

• Global Boundary Stratotype Section and PointRelated: Magnetic reversals can provide independent markers near a GSSP boundary.

• Geologic timeRelated: Polarity reversals provide a recognizable chronology independent of fossils.

• Thermoremanent magnetizationRelated: Polarity patterns in thermoremanently magnetized rocks provide a stratigraphic timescale.

• Stratigraphic unitCompared with: It uses magnetic signatures to classify intervals, unlike units defined by lithology or fossils.

• Pelagic sedimentRelated: Magnetic reversals in deep-sea cores help establish the ages of pelagic layers.

• Rock magnetismRelated: Magnetic mineral records identify polarity intervals in sedimentary and volcanic sequences.
