Errors in the radiocarbon dating of deposits in Finland from the time of deglaciation [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1974 Some radiocarbon dates of sediments from the area of the Salpausselkä moraines, and north of them in the area deglaciated after c. 10200 B.P., are too old and at variance with a number of radiocarbon dates for the regional pollen assemblage zones ...

The fossil record stays silent: Confusions and conundrums for hominin pelvis evolution
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The evolution of the hominin pelvis is commonly modeled as a series of stages driven largely by the requirements of bipedal locomotion, reproduction, thermoregulation, and pelvic floor muscular support. These patterns are complicated by variation in canal dimensions in relationship with different changes in overall pelvic breadths. To quantify

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study presents the first unequivocal evidence for the presence of Tasmanian devils (Sarcophilus harrisii) in the Pilbara region of northwestern Australia, based on material recovered from archaeological excavations at Juukan Gorge on Puutu Kunti Kurrama and Pinikura country.

A source-weighted Benthic minus Planktonic radiocarbon method for estimating pure ocean water age
npj Climate and Atmospheric ScienceThis paper introduces the Benthic minus-weighted-Planktonic (BwP) age method to estimate the pure water age of the deep ocean. It combines radiocarbon data with water mass composition evolution in an ocean model under realistic surface forcings ...

RADIOCARBON INVESTIGATION OF THE SUPERLATIVE AFRICAN BAOBABS FROM SAVÉ VALLEY CONSERVANCY, ZIMBABWE
Studia Universitatis Babes-Bolyai Chemia, 2019 The article reports the radiocarbon investigation results of the superlative African baobabs from Savé Valley, Zimbabwe. Several wood samples collected from these baobab were analysed by AMS (accelerator mass spectrometry) radiocarbon dating.

Nature Reviews Methods Primers, 2021 Radiocarbon dating uses the decay of a radioactive isotope of carbon (14C) to measure time and date objects containing carbon-bearing material. With a half-life of 5,700 ± 30 years, detection of 14C is a useful tool for determining the age of a specimen ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The timing and spatial patterns of glaciers retreat in the Northern French Alps during the Lateglacial (19.0–11.7 ka) remain debated, reflecting discrepancies among available chronological data sets. The complex interactions between major glaciers, such as the Rhône and Arve glaciers to the north and the Isère glacier to the south, represent a

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 27-82., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
