Fig. 8From: A centennial-resolution terrestrial climatostratigraphy and Matuyama–Brunhes transition record from a loess sequence in ChinaComparison of terrestrial sequence records of the MB transition VGPs. a The age plot of the VGP latitudes around the MB polarity flip (MBpf) zone from Lingtai. The short polarity zones in the MBpf are numbered “n1–n4” for normal polarity and “r1–r4” for reverse polarity in ascending order. Polarity flip no. 5 is after Fig. 7a. b The elevation plot of the VGP latitudes of a horizon mean paleomagnetic direction with an error bar of α95 from Sangiran, Java (After Hyodo et al. 2011). UT: Upper Tuff. c The VGP latitudes from lavas of the Haleakala section on Maui Island, Hawaii (after Coe et al. 2004), plotted to the flow unit number. The Ar/Ar ages with an asterisk are after Singer et al. (2019). The thick and thin red lines show the correlations for the upper and lower boundaries of the SW Pacific VGP zone, respectively.
