a Equal-area projections of mean directions (with an associated 95% confidence limit) of LTC, MTC1, and MTC2, b and those depicted along with the directions of the previously observed medium-temperature component of Cretaceous red beds from southwest Japan (Uno and Furukawa 2005; Uno et al. 2021) and the reference direction for southwest Japan at 70 and 20 Ma (Uno et al. 2021). The asterisk and diamond represent the present Earth’s field direction and axial dipole field direction, respectively. c–e Site-mean directions of HTC. The red symbols represent the mean direction and associated 95% confidence limit
