High geomagnetic field intensity recorded by anorthosite xenoliths requires a strongly powered late Mesoproterozoic geodynamo
This repository contains data, code, and a manuscript presenting and analyzing paleointensity data from anorthosite and diabase litholoies within the late Mesoproterozoic Beaver Bay Complex of northern Minnesota. The manuscript is currently in press in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

This folder contains Jupyter notebooks developed using a Python 3 kernel that generates the figures and conducts the data analysis associated with the study. The notebook uses the Python packages listed in the environment.yml file in the folder. Users of conda can create an environment using that file in order to run the code with all of the necessary libraries.
This folder contains new and compiled paleointensity data and QDM magnetic map data.
This folder contains the .tex source file and the compiled PDF of the manuscript associated with the study.
