How would the history of magnetic reversals show it self on the ocean floor?

* " . . . if new sea floor acquired the present magnetic field, spreading from a central ridge would produce magnetic stripes parallel to the ridge" ~ see related link below for additional information . * Excerpt from Wikipedia


How did research from the Glomar Challenger help scientists support the theory of seafloor spreading?

Drill cores from the ocean floor were dated and found to be very young compared to the age of the earth. This means the crust had to be formed recently, which can be explained by creation of crust at a spreading center.


Is there are recent research into UK lay lines?

Ley lines are lines of energy that many monuments like Stonehenge have been built on. People are still researching this, but not much is known. It may be related to the Earth's magnetic field.


What method of body composition assessment involves passing the body through a magnetic field?

MRI, which is not practical and is very expensive. The only people getting tested via MRI are subjects of a research project. The BOD POD has magnets to lock the door but you do not pass through a magnetic field. BOD PODs are available at many colleges and universities in Exercise Science or Nutrition departments.


How does seafloor spreading affect the magnetic pattern on the sea floor?

In short it doesn't.The spreading of the sea floor comes from magma oozing up between the cracks between continental plates as lava. This lava subsequently cools rapidly and forms solid rock. It was found in the 1950s that the vast areas of rock on the ocean's floor formed in this way contained bands or stripes of magnetism pointing one way and then another.It wasn't until 1963 that proposals were first put forth that the reversing patterns observed were the products of the Earth's magnetic poles reversing. Subsequent research on this topic has supported this initial hypothesis.Magnetic banding isn't just observed with the ocean's floor but is also important to archaeologists as iron components within clay record the exact state of the Earth's magnetic field when they are fired.Banding occurs because whilst liquid rock or with clay the magnetic particles can move around and can align themselves with the magnetic field. As they solidify they lose this ability and are fixed in place recording what the magnetic field was at that time.
