Plate Tectonics
Paleomagnetism is the study of the magnetic properties of rocks and sediments to understand the history of Earth's magnetic field and plate movements. This field reveals how the orientation of magnetic minerals in rocks reflects their position relative to the magnetic poles over time, providing insights into seafloor spreading, continental drift, and past tectonic configurations.
congrats on reading the definition of paleomagnetism. now let's actually learn it.
