Radiocarbon analysis is a very powerful tool for obtaining ages of strata within an archaeological site. In the words of William Libby “The determination of the chronology of ancient civilizations may be said to be the main archeological problem and task of radiocarbon dating.” This field of research, based on radiocarbon dating, has indeed changed several fundamental paradigms in archaeology, including the use of typology for synchronization between sites. Chronological research in archaeology is limited by the relatively few materials that can be used for high resolution dating. Therefore the development of several new materials for dating such as ash, aragonite and phytoliths is underway, and research aimed at using mortar and plaster for dating, is still ongoing. Dating of single molecules and specific organic fractions in the material is also moving forward and radiocarbon researchers are looking for new materials for dating in order to improve chronological resolution. What next? First step for solving challenging chronological problems in archaeology that relate to cultural changes is in the excavation; understanding the formation of the archaeological record. The excavation is where a chronology student should start integrating and applying other analytical methods, in addition to radiocarbon, to understand the archaeological record and its chronology.

Since 1993 Historic England (and its predecessor English Heritage) has commissioned over 8000 radiocarbon measurements on archaeological samples. Over 80 % of these have been interpreted within formal Bayesian statistical models. The multiple strands of reinforcing evidence incorporated in these models provide precise chronologies that make stringent demands on the accuracy of the radiocarbon results included in the analysis. Inter-laboratory replication is consequently a routine part of model validation and construction. We report an analysis of replicate measurements from at least two laboratories on over 1000 archaeological samples. It is clear that laboratory reproducibility accounts for only part of the observed variation. The type of material dated is also critical to the reproducibility of measurements, with some sample types proving particularly problematic.

Anita Aerts-Bijma1, Harro Meijer1, Dipayan Paul1, Mike Dee1, Sanne Palstra1 1 University of Groningen, Groningen, Netherlands. After 25 years of loyal service, our High Voltage 2.5 MV Tandetron AMS was decommissioned when we moved our laboratories to our new building in spring 2017. As successor, we received an IonPlus “MICADAS “ AMS instrument. Compared to the previous machine, the most important innovation the Micadas brought to our lab is a substantially increased efficiency, resulting in much higher count rates and thus, at least in principle, significantly increased precision. For our previous AMS facility, we used calculated “best estimates” for uncertainties that were based on all error sources in the measurements (next to the Poisson counting error also the standard deviation of the backgrounds, error in the mean of the calibration standards, and the uncertainty in the ¹³C correction). Over the years, we verified that these uncertainties were indeed a good measure for the spread of the measurements [1]. With the Micadas we want to follow the same approach, that is, quantifying uncertainties as well as possible, instead of using (more or less) an educated guess. As the Poisson uncertainty is much lower than before (often close to 1 ‰ compared to almost 3 ‰ previously for 100 % activity), several other uncertainty sources that were overwhelmed previously become visible, such as the spread caused by the combustion process (carry-over, incomplete combustion,…), chemical pretreatment variability, and others. We will present the first results (based on one full year of operation) for the uncertainty budget of our ¹⁴C measurements,

  • Radiocarbon Dating and Its Applications in Quaternary Studies
    Eiszeitalter und Gegenwart 57/1–2 2–24 Hannover 2008 Quaternary Science Journal Radiocarbon dating and its applications in Quaternary studies *) IRKA HAJDAS Abstract: This paper gives an overview of the origin of 14C, the global carbon cycle, anthropogenic impacts on the atmospheric 14C content and the background of the radiocarbon dating method. For radiocarbon dating, important aspects are sample preparation and measurement of the 14C content. Recent advances in sample preparation allow better understanding of long-standing problems (e.g., contamination of bones), which helps to improve chronologies. In this review, various preparation techniques applied to typical sample types are described. Calibration of radiocarbon ages is the fi nal step in establishing chronologies. The present tree ring chronology-based calibration curve is being constantly pushed back in time beyond the Holocene and the Late Glacial. A reliable calibration curve covering the last 50,000-55,000 yr is of great importance for both archaeology as well as geosciences. In recent years, numerous studies have focused on the extension of the radiocarbon calibration curve (INTCAL working group) and on the reconstruction of palaeo-reservoir ages for marine records. [Die Radiokohlenstoffmethode und ihre Anwendung in der Quartärforschung] Kurzfassung: Dieser Beitrag gibt einen Überblick über die Herkunft von Radiokohlenstoff, den globalen Kohlenstoffkreislauf, anthropogene Einfl üsse auf das atmosphärische 14C und die Grundlagen der Radio- kohlenstoffmethode. Probenaufbereitung und das Messen der 14C Konzentration sind wichtige Aspekte im Zusammenhang mit der Radiokohlenstoffdatierung. Gegenwärtige Fortschritte in der Probenaufbereitung erlauben ein besseres Verstehen lang bekannter Probleme (z.B. die Kontamination von Knochen) und haben zu verbesserten Chronologien geführt.

For this reason we also take into account (DInSAR) techniques, exploiting the SAR sensors some information from geochemical measurements.

Unfortunately, C-band sensors historically carried out by the Osservatorio Vesuviano give no information when dealing with very low [4],[5],[6],[7], presently the Naples branch of the deformation rates and very small deforming areas.

However, several assumptions are frequently made about peatlands in the academic literature, practitioner reports and the popular media which are either ambiguous or in some cases incorrect. Here we discuss the following ten common assumptions about peatlands: 1. the northern peatland carbon store will shrink under a warming climate; 2. peatlands are fragile ecosystems; 3. wet peatlands have greater rates of net carbon accumulation; 4. different rules apply to tropical peatlands; 5. peat is a single soil type; 6. peatlands behave like sponges; 7. Sphagnum is the main ‘ecosystem engineer’ in peatlands; 8. a single core provides a representative palaeo-archive from a peatland; 9. water-table reconstructions from peatlands provide direct records of past climate change; and 10. restoration of peatlands results in the re-establishment of their carbon sink function. In each case we consider the evidence supporting the assumption and, where appropriate, identify its shortcomings or ways in which it may be misleading.
