Description: The magnetostratigraphic sequence of the Norian-Rhaetian Oyuklu section in Turkey. Based off of a magnetostratigraphy published originally by Gallet et al. (2007). Normal-polarity sections are in black and labelled with positive signs (G+, I+, etc). Reverse-polarity sections are in white and labelled with negative signs (B-, D-, etc). The level of the first appearance of Misikella posthernsteini (the base of the Rhaetian) in zone B- is labelled. No precise dates have been provided due to the unresolved nature of Late Triassic chronology and magnetostratigraphic correlations.
