Thermal demagnetization of Saturation Isothermal Remanent Magnetization of selected samples, indicated by age, normalized by the magnetic remanence at room temperature (Mt, s/Ms). Derivative is based on the smoothed trend of thermal demagnetization. Magnetic susceptibility after each heating step is shown below remanence plots sharing the temperature axis. The remanence data are approximated with Stineman function. The output of this function then has a geometric weight applied to the current point and ± 10% of the data range, to arrive at the smoothed curve. Data are taken at Pruhonice Paleomagnetic Laboratory (noise limit on JR-5A spinner is 0.0024 mA/m).
