High-precision radiocarbon dating of the construction phase of Oakbank Crannog, Loch Tay, Perthshire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Many of the Loch Tay crannogs were built in the Early Iron Age and so calibration of the radiocarbon ages produces very broad calendar age ranges due to the well-documented Hallstatt plateau in the calibration curve. However, the large oak timbers that

A radiocarbon database for Scottish archaeological samples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
For the majority of dating laboratories and their respective user communities, the journal Radiocarbon is no longer regarded as the medium for primary publication of radiocarbon measurements.

DENDROCHRONOLOGY AND RADIOCARBON DATING [PDF]

open access: yesRadiocarbon, 2021
ABSTRACTBoth dendrochronology and radiocarbon (14C) dating have their roots back in the early to mid-1900s. Although they were independently developed, they began to intertwine in the 1950s when the founder of dendrochronology, A. E. Douglass, provided dated wood samples for Willard Libby to test his emerging 14C methods.

Variations in radiocarbon ages of various organic fractions in core sediments from Erhai Lake, SW China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Radiocarbon dating was performed for the extracted organic fractions (cellulose-rich and humic acid fractions of plant fragment; fulvic acid, humic acid and humin fractions of humus substance) and shell from core sediments of the Erhai Lake, SW China ...

Back to the future: The advantage of studying key events in human evolution using a new high resolution radiocarbon method.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Radiocarbon dating is the most widely applied dating method in archaeology, especially in human evolution studies, where it is used to determine the chronology of key events, such as the replacement of Neanderthals by modern humans in Europe.

Radiocarbon dating and its applications in Chinese archeology: An overview

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Radiocarbon dating is a well-established chronometric technique that has been widely employed in Chinese archeology since the first radiocarbon laboratory started operating in the Institute of Archaeology at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1965.
