The correlation between geomagnetic field reversals, Hawaiian volcanism, and the motion of the Pacific plate

The correlation between geomagnetic field reversals and volcanism is investigated, according to the speculated consequence on volcanoes of the transient electric currents in the geodynamo, through Joule's heating, before and after every reversal event. We evaluate the temporal variation during...
