EarthRef.org Digital Archive (ERDA) -- MCADAM: A continuous paleomagnetic dipole moment model for at least 3.7 billion years

Description
One zip file (.zip) containing three XLSX spreadsheets with model outputs from MCADAM (Monte Carlo Axial Dipole Average Model) showing posterior predictions of dipole moment versus time.

Models are distinguished by data selection strategy applied to PINT v8.1.1 (www.pintdb.org). See Bono et al. (GJI, 2022) for details on QPI criteria as applied to PINT v8
Three models provided: MCADAM.1a, MCADAM.1b, and MCADAM.1c:
MCADAM.1a : All non-transitional data
MCADAM.1b : Site mean records with a total QPI (Biggin and Paterson, Frontiers, 2014) score of QPI>=3
MCADAM.1c : Site mean records satisfy the following QPI criteria: QAGE, QALT, and QMD.

Included in the zip file are three XLSX spreadsheets, with the following columns:
(i) 0..N : Time step index
(ii) age : Age step realization (Ma)
(iii) mean : MCADAM mean dipole (1e22 Am2)
(iv) std : MCADAM dipole standard deviation (1e22 Am2)
(v) mode : MCADAM dipole mode (1e22 Am2)
(vi) 2.5% : MCADAM dipole 2.5% percentile (1e22 Am2)
(vii) 25% : MCADAM dipole 25% percentile (1e22 Am2)
(viii) 50% : MCADAM dipole 50% percentile (1e22 Am2)
(ix) 75% : MCADAM dipole 75% percentile (1e22 Am2)
(x) 97.5% : MCADAM dipole 97.5% percentile (1e22 Am2)
