Jurassic Paleomagnetic Data from Oaxaca, Mexico with Hysteresis Parameters

Three Excel tables provide paleomagnetic data for reconstructing the Early–Middle Jurassic paleogeography of southern Mexico. The dataset includes locality details, isothermal remanent magnetism models, and hysteresis parameters for rock samples. Diego Osorio Afanador published this 60.9 KB dataset under a CC-BY-NC-4.0 license in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling paleogeographic positions based on paleomagnetic sample locality details.
• Analyzing rock magnetic properties based on isothermal remanent magnetism (IRM) models.
• Characterizing magnetic mineralogy based on hysteresis parameters.
• Refining the Early Jurassic apparent polar wander path for North America based on the compiled data.

Strengths

• Data is structured across three specific tables (locality details, IRM models, hysteresis parameters).
• Published under a clear CC-BY-NC-4.0 license.
• File size of 60.9 KB indicates a focused, manageable dataset.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
