  • The age and paleoclimate implications of relict periglacial block deposits on the New England Tablelands, Australia

    Open AccessAdrian Slee, Timothy T Barrows et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2023

    Pleistocene periglacial activity in eastern Australia was widespread and has been predicted to have extended along much of the east coast. This paper describes block deposits in the New England Tablelands, Australia, as far north as 30°S. These deposits are characterized by openwork blocks on slopes below the angle of repose. The deposits are positioned where frost cracking was significant and range in area up to 8 ha. Surface exposure dating usi…

  • Beppu Bay, Japan, as a candidate Global boundary Stratotype Section and Point for the Anthropocene series

    Open AccessMichinobu Kuwae, B Finney et al.ARTICLEThe Anthropocene Review2023Citada por: 4Referencias: 29

    For assessment of the potential of the Beppu Bay sediments as a Global boundary Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) candidate for the Anthropocene, we have integrated datasets of 99 proxies. The datasets for the sequences date back 100 years for most proxy records and 1300 years for several records. The cumulative number of occurrences of the anthropogenic fingerprint reveal unprecedented increases above the base of the 1953 flood layer at 64.6 c…

  • Holocene lake-level fluctuations in Lakes Keilambete and Gnotuk, southwestern Victoria, Australia

    Open AccessDaniel Wilkins, Chris Gouramanis et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2013Citada por: 6Referencias: 5

    Reconstructed Holocene lake-level curves from two saline, hydrologically closed maar crater lakes in southwestern Victoria, Australia, show near synchronous lake-level changes throughout the Holocene. We show that lake levels, reconstructed from sediment particle size and ostracod valve chemistry (δ 18 O and Sr/Ca) have undergone rapid ( 10 m) fluctuations throughout the Holocene. Finer sampling resolution shows a more sensitive response to Holoc…

  • Cosmogenic nuclide ages for Last Glacial Maximum moraine at Schnells Ridge, Southwest Tasmania

    Open AccessKevin Kiernan, Leslie Keith Fifield et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2004

    Moraines on Schnells Ridge, southwest Tasmania, have been dated using in situ 10 Be. An age of 19,400 ± 600 yr is indicated for the well-preserved innermost moraine from consistent measurements on four large quartzite boulders. This corresponds closely with exposure ages reported by T.T. Barrows et al. (2002, Quaternary Science Reviews 21, 159–173) for Last Glacial Maximum glacial features farther north in Tasmania and southeast Australia. In con…

  • Radiocarbon analysis of the early archaeological site of Nauwalabila I, Arnhem Land, Australia

  • Buang Merabak

    Matthew G Leavesley, Michael I Bird et al.ARTICLEAustralian Archaeology2002Citada por: 13Referencias: 4

    [Extract] This paper reports new radiocarbon estimates for the age of human occupation of Buang Merabak, an archaeological site in central New Ireland, Papua New Guinea. Previously, the oldest radiocarbon date for human occupation in New Ireland was 35,410 ± 430 BP (Leavesley and Allen 1998:80). The radiocarbon determinations reported here, although preliminary, may extend the first evidence of human occupation in New Ireland to beyond 40,000 BP …

  • Late Pleistocene Glaciation of the Kosciuszko Massif, Snowy Mountains, Australia

    Open AccessTimothy T Barrows, John O Stone et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2001

    Late Pleistocene glaciation of the Australian mainland was restricted to a small area of the southeastern highlands. Geomorphic mapping of the area and exposure dating using the in situ produced cosmogenic isotope 10 Be provides evidence for at least two distinct glaciations. The Early Kosciuszko glaciation consisted of a single glacier advance before 59,300 ± 5400 years ago (Snowy River Advance). The Late Kosciuszko glaciation comprised three gl…

  • Early Human Occupation at Devil's Lair, Southwestern Australia 50,000 Years Ago

    Open AccessChris Turney, Chris S M Turney et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2001

    New dating confirms that people occupied the Australian continent before the earliest time inferred from conventional radiocarbon analysis. Many of the new ages were obtained by accelerator mass spectrometry 14 C dating after an acid–base–acid pretreatment with bulk combustion (ABA-BC) or after a newly developed acid–base–wet oxidation pretreatment with stepped combustion (ABOX-SC). The samples (charcoal) came from the earliest occupation levels …

  • New Abox Ams- 14 C Ages Remove Dating Anomalies At Puritjarra Rock Shelter

    M A Smith, Mike Smith et al.ARTICLEAustralian Archaeology2001Citada por: 6Referencias: 2

    Short Reports more generally to gain an appreciation of what information is in existence, its location and how to obtain it. The creation of the Bowen Basin Collection originated as a response to this. Information within the collection largely (but not solely) derives fiom material amassed throughout the nearly seven year course of the Bowen Basin Project. As the Collection took shape, major gaps in the information held and the incomplete nature …

  • Radiocarbon Dating of the Human Occupation of Australia Prior to 40 ka BP—Successes and Pitfalls

    Open AccessLeslie Keith Fifield, Michael I Bird et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2001Citada por: 37Referencias: 13

    Charcoal samples from ancient human occupation sites in Australia have been subjected to a rigorous pretreatment and stepped combustion regime in order to explore the possibility that these sites may be older than previous radiocarbon dating had suggested. In one case, the Devil's Lair site in southwest Australia, the methodology has clearly removed vestiges of contamination by more modern carbon and has led to a revised radiocarbon chronology th…

  • Cosmogenic Cl-36 dating of postglacial landsliding at The Storr, Isle of Skye, Scotland

    Open AccessColin K Ballantyne, John O Stone et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene1998Citada por: 3Referencias: 2

    Major postglacial rock slope failures are a common feature of the Scottish Highlands and other mountainous areas that were deglaciated at the end of the Pleistocene, but evaluation of the causes and triggers of failure has been hindered by a lack of reliable dating evidence. We report the result of a pilot study designed to establish the absolute age of a large postglacial rotational rockslide at The Storr on the Isle of Skye, Scotland, using 36 …
