VGP paths and horizontal plots of the VGP latitude and RPI covering the Réunion subchron that correlates with a North Atlantic record. a–c Show the results of this study. d–f Show the results from ODP Site 981 (Channell et al. 2003). The letter “A” and “B” in (a) and (b), and “A” in (d) and (e) indicate parts of the characteristic VGP clusters identified on (a) and (d), respectively. The blue shaded areas in (a) and (d), indicate that the vertical component of the NAD field at the Earth’s surface is less than − 15 μT (Constable 2007). The yellow stars indicate the sample/core sites. The green dashed line in (c) indicates the average RPI value for the entire interval of this study
