File:Brunhes geomagnetism western US.png

Approximate times of some of the most commonly reported geomagnetic excursions of the Brunhes Normal Polarity Chron.

• Highlighted excursions are those most likely to be found in the western U.S.
• Possible correlations of these to a sketch of the relative paleointensity curve of Guyodo and Valet (1999) are suggested.
• VADM = virtual axial dipole moment.
• Vertical dashed line is the critical value of intensity below which Guyodo and Valet (1999) consider several directional excursions to have occurred.

This graph image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}. It is recommended to name the SVG file “Brunhes geomagnetism western US.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
