Exploring site formation and building local contexts through wiggle-match radiocarbon dating: re-dating of the Firth of Clyde Crannogs, Scotland [PDF]
, 2017 There are at least four wooden intertidal platforms, also known as marine crannogs, in the Firth of Clyde, on the west coast of Scotland. The interpretation of these sites partly depends on their dating and, if coeval, they could point to the presence of

14C Wiggle-Match Dating in High-Resolution Sea-Level Research [PDF]
Radiocarbon, 2001 Comparison of two sets of marsh-accumulation records from each of three Connecticut (USA) salt marshes, one based on individually calibrated dates and the other on wiggle-match dating of the same series of dates, shows that wiggle-match dating results in more precise and objective reconstructions of longer-term (102–103 yr) changes in accumulation rate.

Edge-enhanced disruptive camouflage impairs shape discrimination [PDF]
, 2019 Disruptive colouration (DC) is a form of camouflage comprised of areas of pigmentation across a target’s surface that form false edges, which are said to impede detection by disguising the outline of the target.

Connecting the Greenland ice-core and U∕Th timescales via cosmogenic radionuclides: testing the synchroneity of Dansgaard–Oeschger events [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2018 During the last glacial period Northern Hemisphere climate was characterized by extreme and abrupt climate changes, so-called Dansgaard–Oeschger (DO) events.

Cross Recurrence Plot Based Synchronization of Time Series [PDF]
, 2002 The method of recurrence plots is extended to the cross recurrence plots (CRP), which among others enables the study of synchronization or time differences in two time series.

Radiocarbon Calibration for Japanese Wood Samples [PDF]
, 2003 The radiocarbon content of Japanese cedars was measured by accelerator mass spectrometry for decadal tree-ring samples from the period of 240 BC to AD 900. Conventional gas counting was also used for part of the samples.

Radiocarbon Wiggle-Match Dating of Bulk Sediments—How Accurate Can It Be? [PDF]
Radiocarbon, 2013 We used the radiocarbon wiggle-match dating technique to date the varved sediments of Lake Gyltigesjon in southern Sweden with the main aim to construct an accurate chronology covering the period between about 3000 and 2000 cal BP. Wiggle-match dating was applied to bulk sediments to evaluate the possibility of constructing accurate chronologies in the

Simulating the temperature and precipitation signal in an Alpine ice core [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2013 Accumulation and δ18O data from Alpine ice cores provide information on past temperature and precipitation. However, their correlation with seasonal or annual mean temperature and precipitation at nearby sites is often low.

A wiggle-match date for Polynesian settlement of New Zealand [PDF]
Antiquity, 2003 Dating initial colonisation and environmental impacts by Polynesians in New Zealand is controversial. A key horizon is provided by the Kaharoa Tephra, deposited from an eruption of Mt Tarawera, because just underneath this layer are the first signs of forest clearance which imply human settlement.

Wiggle-match dating the fortification of Køge
Danish Journal of Archaeology, 2018 During archaeological fieldwork in the eastern part of the coastal city of Køge, situated on the east coast of the island of Zealand (Sjælland) in Denmark, remains of a rampart were found and, due to the lack of suitable material for dating via the more traditional dendrochronology, wiggle-match dating was conducted. This article aims at presenting the
