GGF100k - Model that covers the past 100.000 years and it is the longest global reconstruction of the geomagnetic field

GGF100k is a global geomagnetic field model covering the past 100,000 years. It is the first model that provides a global view of the geomagnetic field evolution over an extended period. The model is based on an extensive global dataset of over 100 sediment records, and volcanic data. The geomagnetic axial dipole moment exhibits a broad range of variations, with the lowest value during the Laschamps excursion (41,000 year ago). Other excursions appear in limited locations and are likely regional events.
