An ashy septingentenarian: the Kaharoa tephra turns 700 (with notes on its volcanological, archaeological, and historical importance) [PDF]
Most of us are aware of the basaltic Tarawera eruption on 10th June 1886: the high toll on life (~120 people), landscape devastation, and loss of the Pink and White Terraces.

Abstract The number of cryptotephra (non‐visible volcanic ash) records from northeastern North America is unique in the continent. The resulting tephrostratigraphic framework includes ash deposits sourced from volcanic arcs across the Northern Hemisphere and is an exceptional resource for correlating and dating paleoenvironmental records.

Abstract Rapid, transient, landscape‐scale changes associated with deglaciation can condition slopes for failure and trigger bedrock landslides. However, the mechanisms leading to paleo rock slope failures following the last glacial period are challenging to infer because observations of how both landsliding and potential driving factors were ...

Tephrochronology: principles, functioning, application [PDF]
Tephrochronology is a unique method for linking and dating geological, palaeoecological, palaeoclimatic or archaeological sequences or events. The method relies firstly and fundamentally on stratigraphy and the law of superposition, which apply in any ...

Lateral variations in the signature of earthquake‐generated deposits in Lake Iznik, NW Turkey
This study aims to reveal the lateral variations in earthquake‐generated event deposits throughout Lake Iznik, a large lake on the middle strand of the North Anatolian Fault (NW Turkey). Based on stratigraphic, sedimentological and geochemical analyses of 14 sediment cores from two subbasins across the lake, five different types of event deposits (T1 ...

Advancing chronologies for Last Interglacial sequences
ABSTRACT Studies of the Last Interglacial (ca. 129 to 116 ka BP) provide an opportunity to study the impact of high‐latitude warm temperatures on the Earth system. To build an accurate spatio‐temporal picture of climate and environmental variability during the Last Interglacial, building robust chronologies, through which the patchwork of terrestrial ...

Optically-stimulated luminescence profiling and dating of historic agricultural terraces in Catalonia (Spain) [PDF]
Dating agricultural terraces is a notoriously difficult problem for archaeologists. The frequent occurrence of residual material in terrace soils and the potential for post-depositional disturbance mean that conventional artefactual and lab-based dating ...
