Miami Natural Radiocarbon Measurements III∗
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 18 July 2016
Extract
The list of dates grouped below is a continuation of work reported in our earlier lists. In one case (Core A 254-BR-C), an extensive sequence of dates is reported which, for completeness, includes some data presented in an earlier report (Miami II, 1963).
We continue to use a 1.0-L CO2 proportional counter operating a 3 atm pressure (see Stockholm V for details). Except for the early incorporation of a counter for tritium analyses within our present shielding house and switching over to transistorized electronics, we do not anticipate changes in our set-up.
Wherever possible we have entered the δC13 corrected date as well as the δC13 value determined from that sample. An apparent 400-yr sea-surface carbonate age is subtracted from the calculated age of marine carbonate materials, but not for organic material (Miami I and Miami II).
