Hi all,
does anyone know about a work concentrating on the
methodological problem of correlating 14C-data with varve dating in a pollen
profile?
So far I could only find reports describing the
problem either as being apparent from correlating different profiles dated with
different methods (and thus not having tested both dating methods on the same
object), or as unsolvable because of too low organic content in the varvae
to be radiocarbon dated. What about AMS-dating of pollen?
I would be thankful for any reference.
Thanks in advance!
