Paleosecular variations 0-19,000 years recorded by sediments from Escondido Lake (Argentina)
Paleomagnetic and sedimentological studies carried out on four cores, about 11 m long, from the bottom sediments of Escondido Lake (southwestern Argentina) are described. This lake is geologically related to the set of lakes of glacial origin located in western Patagonia. Using several magnetic stud...
