Testing the use of bomb radiocarbon to date the surface layers of blanket peat [PDF]
The recently formed surface layers of peatlands are archives of past environmental conditions and can have a temporal resolution considerably greater than deeper layers.

¹⁴C dating of modern marine and estuarine shellfish [PDF]
We measured the ¹⁴C content of 36 living marine molluscs from Tairua Harbour and the rocky coast on the Coromandel Peninsula of New Zealand. We identified species suitable for radiocarbon dating and show that the open marine intertidal zone is enriched ...

Assessment of oxygen plasma ashing as a pre-treatment for radiocarbon dating [PDF]
This study investigates the potential of low-temperature oxygen plasma ashing as a technique for decontaminating charcoal and wood samples prior to radiocarbon dating.

Inferring the timing of abandonment of aggraded alluvial surfaces dated with cosmogenic nuclides [PDF]
Information about past climate, tectonics, and landscape evolution is often obtained by dating geomorphic surfaces comprising deposited or aggraded material, e.g. fluvial fill terraces, alluvial fans, volcanic flows, or glacial till.

The problem of dating quartz 1 : Spectroscopic ionoluminescence of dose dependence [PDF]
This work is partially supported by NERC studentship F008589/1.A suite of quartz samples of different provenances, irradiation, thermal and depositional histories were analysed using spectroscopic ionoluminescence (IL) to investigate variations in ...

On Kranjsko polje in central Slovenia, carbonate conglomerates have been dated to several Pleistocene glacial phases by relative dating based on the morphostratigrafic mapping and borehole data, and by paleomagnetic and 10Be analyses.

The late Quaternary slip-rate of the Har-Us-Nuur fault (Mongolian Altai) from cosmogenic Be-10 and luminescence dating [PDF]
The Altai range (western Mongolia) accommodates NNE–SSW shortening across the northern India–Eurasia collision zone by dextral slip on faults trending NNW–SSE, and anticlockwise, vertical-axis rotations of fault-bounded blocks.

Taking the Chang’e-5 (CE-5) sampling area as an example, this study carried out an investigation on improving the crater size-frequency distribution (CSFD) dating accuracy of lunar surface geologic units based on the crater degradation model.

Detrital zircon and apatite (U‐Th)/He geochronology of intercalated baked sediments: a new approach to dating young basalt flows [PDF]
Simple numerical models suggest that many basaltic lava flows should sufficiently heat the sediments beneath them to reset (U‐Th)/He systematics in detrital zircon and apatite.

A new archaeological site was discovered accidentally in year 2018. A surface survey revealed stone artefacts, which were generally dated to the Late Palaeolithic. Later, archaeological sondages were opened and newly found stone artifacts proved earliest
