Alternating field and thermal demagnetization experiments reveal that specimens from these lava and pyroclastic flows preserve a stable remanent magnetization. The site mean directions of 55 sampling sites were corrected for the local magnetic declination and inclination values measured using a fluxgate type magnetometer at each locality. A new secular variation curve for South Kyusyu is established and applied for the age determination of some lava flows with unknown ages.}, pages = {35--49}, title = {A new secular variation curve for South Kyushu, Japan, and its application to the dating of some lava flows}, volume = {40}, year = {2007} }
