The least-squares line and plane and the analysis of palaeomagnetic data

Joseph L. Kirschvink · 1 Sep 1980

The classic, multivariate technique of principal component analysis can be used to find and estimate the directions of lines and planes of best least-squares fit along the demagnetization path of a palaeomagnetic specimen, thereby replacing vector subtraction, remagnetization circles and difference vector paths with one procedure. Eigenvalues from the analysis are the variance of the…

Linear Models of Dissipation whose Q is almost Frequency Independent--II

Michèle Caputo · 1 Nov 1967

Laboratory experiments and field observations indicate that the Q of many non-ferromagnetic inorganic solids is almost frequency independent in the range 10−2–107 c/s, although no single substance has been investigated over the entire frequency spectrum. One of the purposes of this investigation is to find the analytic expression for a linear dissipative mechanism whose Q…

Current plate motions

Charles DeMets, Richard G. Gordon, Donald F. Argus et al. · 1 May 1990

We determine best-fitting Euler vectors, closure-fitting Euler vectors, and a new global model (NUVEL-1) describing the geologically current motion between 12 assumed-rigid plates by inverting plate motion data we have compiled, critically analysed, and tested for self-consistency. We treat Arabia, India and Australia, and North America and South America as distinct plates, but combine Nubia…

Traveltimes for global earthquake location and phase identification

B. L. N. Kennett, E. R. Engdahl · 1 May 1991

Over the last three years, a major international effort has been made by the Sub-Commission on Earthquake Algorithms of the International Association of Seismology and the Physics of the Earth's Interior (IASPEI) to generate new global traveltime tables for seismic phases to update the tables of Jeffreys & Bullen (1940). The new tables are specifically…

Constraints on seismic velocities in the Earth from traveltimes

B. L. N. Kennett, E. R. Engdahl, R. Buland · 1 Jul 1995

New empirical traveltime curves for the major seismic phases have been derived from the catalogues of the International Seismological Centre by relocating events by using P readings, depth phases and the iasp91 traveltimes, and then re-associating phase picks. A smoothed set of traveltime tables is extracted by a robust procedure which gives estimates of the…

Geophysical Journal International template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Geophysical Journal International format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Geophysical Journal International template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Oxford University Press format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Geophysical Journal International use?
Geophysical Journal International uses Author–year (OUP) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., Jones, B. and Lee, C. (2023) 'A representative article title', Geophysical Journal International, 12(3), pp. 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Geophysical Journal International?
No. DocuGuru generates the oup-authoring-template LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Oxford University Press-ready Geophysical Journal International document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Geophysical Journal International template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Geophysical Journal International format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Geophysical Journal International?
Geophysical Journal International is a multidisciplinary journal published by Oxford University Press. DocuGuru's Geophysical Journal International template matches Oxford University Press's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Geophysical Journal International PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Geophysical Journal International template (the oup-authoring-template class) that is ready to submit to Oxford University Press, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Geophysical Journal International template cost?
You can start writing in the Geophysical Journal International template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Geophysical Journal International PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
