magnetization increased by a factor of about 3.8 (from the Curie Law of
susceptibility) while ferromagnetic minerals see little change in their
susceptibility.
As mentioned earlier and in the case studies (Chapter 6), magnetic
parameters can be tailored to the magnetic characteristics of the rock. Both
S ratio and the magnetically measured goethite-to-hematite ratio can be
useful rock magnetic measurements for cyclostratigraphy.
