Abstract:The fine-grained silt/clay sediments sampled at 38 levels of a 21 m thick segment at the Thimi outcrop in the Kathmandu valley have been studied for their rockmagnetic properties. These sediments have yielded consistently normal magnetic polarity and 14C ages determined by various workers between 20 and 45 kyrs or even more. They were measured for a set of rock magnetic parameters: low-field magnetic susceptibility, parameters derived from isothermal remanent magnetization (IRM) acquisition and demagnetisation… Show more
