摘要
Summary. Magnetic studies have been carried out on organic sediments from five Finnish lakes to determine the carrier(s) of the stable NRM and to find how the remanence is acquired. Single or pseudo‐single domain ‘magnetite’ is thought to carry the NRM. It was found that drying and cooling sediment samples resulted in a loss of NRM which was attributed to the misalignment of small magnetic particles. Low‐field experiments were carried out on sediment samples in different physical states and from the results of these investigations it was concluded that post‐depositional processes are important in the acquisition of an NRM. Stabilization of magnetic grains is thought to be due to the growth of gels in the organic sediment rather than to dewatering. Copyright © 1979, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved
