Palaeointensity (PINT) database v8.0.0 (NERC Grants NE/P017266/1, NE/S008330/1, NE/P00170X/1)

The palaeointensity (PINT) database of estimates of absolute palaeomagnetic field strength throughout Earth history. The aim of the PINT database is to catalogue all absolute palaeointensity data with ages > 50 ka which have been published in the peer-reviewed literature. The data is provided at the cooling unit level or, in the case of large intrusions, at the sampling site level. In some cases, the data provided in the publication only allows averages of multiple cooling units to be given. In such cases, this should be a Field. The database was published in Bono et al. (2021, https://doi.org/10.1093/gji/ggab490) and an online version is available at http://pintdb.org/
