Abstract
Measurements of samples taken from three parallel cores from Elk Lake in northern Minnesota have been combined to produce a high-quality record of recent variations in the local magnetic field. Annual laminations in the sediment provide excellent time control for the record and evidence for a consistent depositional environment. The Elk Lake paleomagnetic record contributes significantly to our understanding of the recent history of the magnetic field in central North America, modifying several previous conclusions.
