Abstract
The data obtained by former magnetostartigraphic studies of sections of Jurassic/Cretaceous age located at Brodno, W. Slovakia, and Puert Escano, S. Spain, about 2200 km apart, are herein reprocessed in order to detect environmental cycles recorded by magnetic susceptibility. The dating of the samples with respect to the geomagnetic polarity time scale enabled to estimate the power spectrum up to the frequency of 11 Myr−1 as well as the phases corresponding to the spectral maxima. Using these frequencies and phases, we linked together the cycles detected with different sections. The hypothesis that their similarity results only from random coincidence had to be rejected for seven pairs of these cycles. The frequencies of these cycles are related to those of the recent modes of orbital eccentricity.
