Abstract

The remanent magnetization intensities of eight extrusive igneous units of Cenozoic age from Jalisco State, Mexico, are found to have a distribution which approximates to a logarithmic gaussian distribution. The sample population (104) is better represented by statistical parameters derived from the logarithmic gaussian distribution than from the normal distribution. The log normal average intensities of the different sites appear to correlate with magnetic polarity. Finally, the log-normal average intensity determined using all sites is compared with other Cenozoic data.
