General Comments This Paper Brings Together Three Independent Dating
General comments This paper brings together three independent dating techniques to improve age model reliability for a lake record in Alaska. Davies et al. help to advance two areas; firstly, to expand the tephrostratigraphic record for North America and, secondly, provide a working example of how useful tephrochronology is in validating other independent dating techniques with the use Bayesian statistics. The paper itself is clearly written and provides an example for using multiple chronometers in a lake record setting. The introduction sets out the problems of obtaining accurate and precise ages using radiocarbon dating, particularly in high latitude lakes, and how these could be resolved with the use of combining other dating techniques such as palaeomagnetism and tephrochronology with the appropriate methods of Bayesian statistics. The methods conducted by the authors is definitive though additional detail could be added to some sections to allow clear reproduction of certain processes and provide additional information as to why a certain process were chosen. The step-by-step assessment of which radiocarbon dates were appropriate for the overall age model was useful to see. The tephra correlations made by the authors look robust and clear. I agree with the comments made by RC1 for this part of the paper. There are a few additional comments made on the attached document around the presentation of data to justify primary deposition. The justification for including/excluding certain ages in the Bayesian age model were made clear and the age model results were repeatable. The discussion section brings together all the important points in a concise format. -

The Distal and Local Volcanic Ash in the Late Pleistocene Sediments Of
geosciences Article The Distal and Local Volcanic Ash in the Late Pleistocene Sediments of the Termination I Interval at the Reykjanes Ridge, North Atlantic, Based on the Study of the Core AMK-340 Alexander Matul 1,* , Irina F. Gablina 2, Tatyana A. Khusid 1, Natalya V. Libina 1 and Antonina I. Mikhailova 2 1 Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, Russian Academy of Sciences, 117997 Moscow, Russia 2 Geological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, 119107 Moscow, Russia * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 18 June 2019; Accepted: 29 August 2019; Published: 30 August 2019 Abstract: We made the geochemical analysis of the volcanic material from the sediment core AMK-340 (the Russian research vessel “Akademik Mstislav Keldysh” station 340), the central zone of the Reykjanes Ridge. Two ash-bearing sediment units within the interval of the Termination I can be detected. They correlate with the Ash Zone I in the North Atlantic Late Quaternary sediments having an age of 12,170–12,840 years within the Younger Dryas cold chronozone and 13,600–14,540 years within the Bølling–Allerød warm chronozone. The ash of the Younger Dryas unit is presented mostly by the mafic and persilicic material originated from the Icelandic volcanoes. One sediment sample from this unit contained Vedde Ash material. The ash of the Bølling–Allerød unit is presented mostly by the mafic shards which are related to the basalts of the rift zone on the Reykjanes Ridge, having presumably local origin. Possible detection of Vedde Ash could help to specify the timing of the previously reconstructed paleoceanographic changes for the Termination I in the point of the study: significant warming in the area might have occurred as early as 300 years before the end of the conventional Younger Dryas cold chronozone. -
