Abstract

Michael Fuller, author of a similar overview four years ago, concluded that “...the next quadrennium promises to be a most interesting one, with plenty to keep us busy.” The 11 review papers that follow support his prediction; research in geomagnetism and paleomagnetism indeed has flourished over the last four years. In this brief overview, I will attempt to summarize what I perceive as important advances during the last quadrennium and to predict where research might lead during the next four years. These observations are seen through the eyes of a very specialized geophysicist; another author undoubtedly would see the past and future much differently.
