ИСТИНА

Our work is devoted to paleomagnetic studies of lava samples of the Late Pleistocene-Holocene epoch from three volcanoes of Kamchatka (the Avachinsky, the Gorely and the Tolbachik) in order to define the age of lava flows and to obtain data of paleosecular variations of the geomagnetic field for the Kamchatka region. As a result, for the three lava flows, the VDM value and the VGP coordinates were determined. It is interesting that for the sample from the Gorely volcano, a relatively high paleointensity and low inclination values are observed, which may be evidence of a record of the "Sterno-Etrussia" geomagnetic excursion which occurred about 2700 years ago. This assumption requires further study.
