Abstract
We use the Cramer-Rao bound to show which short magnetic reversals can be recovered successfully from a magnetic anomaly profile. Using a simple variant of the Vine-Matthews model, we show, in particular, that errors in determining the duration of a short subchron are much smaller than errors in localizing the center of the subchron.
