Radiocarbon: a key tracer for studying Earth's dynamo, climate system, carbon cycle, and Sun
BACKGROUND Radiocarbon (14C) has long been recognized as providing an essential
dating method covering the past 55,000 years. However, the further role of 14C as a …

Firn on ice sheets
Nature Reviews Earth & Environment, 2024 - nature.com
Most of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are covered with firn—the transitional
material between snow and glacial ice. Firn is vital for understanding ice-sheet mass …

The IntCal20 Northern Hemisphere radiocarbon age calibration curve (0–55 cal kBP)
Radiocarbon (14C) ages cannot provide absolutely dated chronologies for archaeological
or paleoenvironmental studies directly but must be converted to calendar age equivalents …

Volcanic stratospheric sulfur injections and aerosol optical depth from 500 BCE to 1900 CE
The injection of sulfur into the stratosphere by explosive volcanic eruptions is the cause of
significant climate variability. Based on sulfate records from a suite of ice cores from …
