Abstract

Marine magnetics have been collected worldwide for the last 60 years, and despite tremendous advances in dating the seafloor and reconstructing the past evolution of the Earth's lithosphere, there are still many areas where adequate data coverage and/or proper understanding are lacking. Specific areas that need attention include seafloor dating and structural analysis in tectonically complicated and remote areas, such as in the so-called Cretaceous and Jurassic "quiet zones", and at passive margins. We also encourage reviews and new insights into the magnetic structure of oceanic crust, which displays important variations with spreading rate and age. Inputs from oceanic rock magnetism, deep-sea or satellite measurements are explicitly encouraged. Contributions are expected on all marine magnetic topics, from acquisition of new data sets to compilation of existing ones, from deep-sea to surface and satellite anomaly data, and from oceanic rock magnetic properties to plate kinematics
