Crossdating Juniperus procera from North Gondar, Ethiopia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The application of dendrochronology in (sub)tropical regions has been limited by the difficulty in finding trees with distinct annual rings that can be crossdated.

Were the Larsemann Hills ice-free through the last Glacial Maximum? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Lake sediments in the Larsemann Hills contain a great diversity of biological and physical markers from which past environments can be inferred. In order to determine the timing of environmental changes it is essential to have accurate dating of ...

Tren kenaikan suhu permukaan laut pada abad ke-14 berdasarkan data geokimia Sr/Ca dari fosil koral Mentawai

open access: yesIndonesian Journal on Geoscience, 2014
DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v5i2.96Sr/Ca content ratio in coral is a promising tool for a sea surface temperature reconstruction. In this study, Sr/Ca was analyzed from the top core of fossil coral from Central Mentawai, Indonesia (BLS).

A novel subsurface sediment plate method for quantifying sediment accumulation and erosion in seagrass meadows

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Sediment dynamics in seagrass meadows are key determinants of carbon sequestration and storage, surface elevation, and resilience and recovery from disturbance. However, current methods for measuring sediment accumulation are limited.

Selection and Treatment of Data for Radiocarbon Calibration: An Update to the International Calibration (IntCal) Criteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
High-quality data from appropriate archives are needed for the continuing improvement of radiocarbon calibration curves. We discuss here the basic assumptions behind 14C dating that necessitate calibration and the relative strengths and weaknesses of ...

A new sampling technique for surface exposure dating using a portable electric rock cutter

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 2012
Surface exposure dating using in situ cosmogenic nuclides has contributed to our understanding of Earth-surface processes. The precision of the ages estimated by this method is affected by the sample geometry; therefore, high accuracy measurements of the

New modeling of the Vostok ice flow line and implication for the glaciological chronology of the Vostok ice core [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We have used new spaceborne (elevation) and airborne (ice thickness) data to constrain a 2D1/2 model of snow accumulation and ice flow along the Ridge B-Vostok station ice flow line (East Antarctica).

Holocene Sedimentary Record and Coastal Evolution in the Makran Subduction Zone (Iran)

open access: yesQuaternary, 2019
The western Makran coast displays evidence of surface uplift since at least the Late Pleistocene, but it remains uncertain whether this displacement is accommodated by creep on the subduction interface, or in a series of large earthquakes.

New technique for surface exposure dating [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2012
A new technique that allows researchers to determine the amount of time a rock sample has been exposed to daylight could find many applications in geology and archaeology. The new method, pioneered by Sohbati et al., is based on optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) bleaching profiles.

The ground beneath our feet: A critical reflection on 135 years of landscape evolution models for southern Africa

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science
In his 1925 paper describing the Taung Child fossil, Dart makes various assertions about the landscape around Taung, inferring past climate dynamics, and the role these factors play in the evolution of our early prehuman relatives.
