Highlights of recent developments in paleomagnetic studies are referenced in this brief review. Emphasis is on (1) the continuing studies of the relative motions of the main continental (cratonic) blocks, (2) unravelling the history of allochthonous terranes, and (3) the problems of deviation of the geomagnetic field with respect to the spin axis of the Earth and its

A paleomagnetic study of Late Mesozoic dykes and sills and Paleozoic sediments from Spitsbergen gives the position of the pole in the Late Mesozoic and Paleozoic to the south of corresponding poles for Europe and North America. The data suggest that Svalbard has moved independently of Europe and North America at least in the Late Mesozoic, and thus might behave as a microplate or block. Dept. of Earth and Atmos.

Data modelling suggests that this is due both to the thermal conductivity contrast between sediments and basement and to the presence of hydrothermal circulation within basement highs. Non-linear temperature profiles in sediments covering basement highs suggest that the underlying circulation is causing an upward movement of porewater. No firm evidence shows that sediment faults act as preferred pathways for porewater advection. Dept. ~f Geol, Univ. of Sheffield, $3 7HF, UK.
