• Revised ΔR values for the Barents Sea and its archipelagos as a pre-requisite for accurate and robust marine-based 14C chronologies 

      Pienkowski, Anna; Husum, Katrine; Furze, Mark; Missana, Amandine F.J.; Irvali, Nil; Divine, Dmitry V.; Eilertsen, Vårin Trælvik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-11)
      The calibration of marine 14C dates requires the incorporation of regionally specific marine reservoir offsets known as ΔR, essential for accurate and meaningful inter-archive comparisons. Revised, regional ΔR (‘ΔRR’) values for the Barents Sea are presented for molluscs and cetaceans for the two latest iterations of the marine calibration curve, based on previously published pre-bomb live-collected ...
    • Vedde Ash constrains Younger Dryas glacier re-advance and rapid glacio-isostatic rebound on Svalbard 

      Farnsworth, Wesley Randall; Ingólfsson, Ólafur; Mannerfelt, Erik S.; Kalliokoski, Maarit H.; Gudmundsdottir, Esther Ruth; Retelle, Michael; Allaart, Lis; Brynjólfsson, Skafti; Furze, Mark; Hancock, Holt John; Kjær, Kurt H.; Pieńkowski, Anna J.; Schomacker, Anders (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10-09)
      The distal deposition of tephra from explosive volcanism has the potential to geochronologically constrain sedimentary archives and landforms. With this technique, we constrain a Late Glacial glacier re-advance on Svalbard and suggest that glacioisostatic emergence rates during the Younger Dryas chronozone were at least three times greater than previous estimates. The identification of cryptotephra ...
