Two MATLAB programs for computing paleo-elevations and burial ages from paired-cosmogenic nuclides [PDF]

open access: yesMethodsX, 2019
Methods based on cosmic-ray produced nuclides are key to improve our understanding of the Earth surface dynamic. Measuring multiple cosmogenic nuclides in the same rock sample has a great potential, but data interpretation requires rigorous and often ...

Eolian chronology reveals causal links between tectonics, climate, and erg generation [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Modeling cosmogenic nuclides concentrations from Kalahari Desert Sand reveals the time of sand introduction into the landscape. This coincides with morphotectonic and climatic changes that could have triggered sand production and its impact on the ...

Surface exposure dating with cosmogenic nuclides [PDF]

open access: yesEiszeitalter und Gegenwart, 2008
In the last decades surface exposure dating using cosmogenic nuclides has emerged as a powerful tool in Quaternary geochronology and landscape evolution studies.

Cosmogenic soil production rate calculator [PDF]

open access: yesMethodsX, 2020
To understand the rates at which soils form from bedrock, it is important to know the rates at which the bedrock surface lowers (the apparent erosion rate, which is assumed to be constant).

Drill-site selection for cosmogenic-nuclide exposure dating of the bed of the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2022
Direct observations of the size of the Greenland Ice Sheet during Quaternary interglaciations are sparse yet valuable for testing numerical models of ice-sheet history and sea level contribution. Recent measurements of cosmogenic nuclides in bedrock from

In situ-produced cosmogenic krypton in zircon and its potential for Earth surface applications [PDF]

open access: yesGeochronology, 2022
Analysis of cosmogenic nuclides produced in surface rocks and sediments is a valuable tool for assessing the rates of processes and the timing of events that shaped the Earth surface.

The NUNAtak Ice Thinning (NUNAIT) Calculator for Cosmonuclide Elevation Profiles

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
Cosmogenic nuclides are widely used to constrain the landscape history of glaciated areas. At nunataks in continental polar regions with extremely arid conditions, cosmogenic nuclides are often the only method available to date the ice thinning history ...

Sediment burial dating using terrestrial cosmogenic nuclides [PDF]

open access: yesEiszeitalter und Gegenwart, 2008
Burial dating using in situ produced terrestrial cosmogenic nuclides is a relatively new method to date sediments and quantify geomorphological processes such as erosion, accumulation and river incision.

Cosmogenic nuclide exposure age scatter records glacial history and processes in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesGeochronology, 2021
The preservation of cosmogenic nuclides that accumulated during periods of prior exposure but were not subsequently removed by erosion or radioactive decay complicates interpretation of exposure, erosion, and burial ages used for a variety of ...

Technical Note: Noble gas extraction procedure and performance of the Cologne Helix MC Plus multi-collector noble gas mass spectrometer for cosmogenic neon isotope analysis [PDF]

open access: yesGeochronology, 2021
We established a new laboratory for noble gas mass spectrometry that is dedicated to the development and application to cosmogenic nuclides at the University of Cologne (Germany).
