Modern and Pleistocene Reservoir Ages Inferred from South Pacific Corals
This paper presents radiocarbon results from modern South Pacific corals from the Marquesas Islands, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea (PNG), and Easter Island. All of the measurements are from pre-bomb Porites corals that lived during the 1940s and 1950s. The data reflect subannual to multiannual surface ocean 14 C variability and allow for precise, unambiguous reservoir age determinations. The results are compared with published values from other coral…
Radiocarbon Results from a 13-Kyr BP Coral from the Huon Peninsula, Papua New Guinea
This paper presents radiocarbon results from a single Goniastrea favulus coral from Papua New Guinea which lived continuously between 13.0 and 13.1 kyr BP. The specimen was collected from a drill core on the Huon Peninsula and has been independently dated with 230 Th. A site-specific reservoir correction has been applied to the results, and coral growth bands were used to calibrate individual growth years. Alternating density bands, which are the…
Marine04 Marine Radiocarbon Age Calibration, 0–26 Cal Kyr Bp
New radiocarbon calibration curves, IntCal04 and Marine04, have been constructed and internationally ratified to replace the terrestrial and marine components of IntCal98. The new calibration data sets extend an additional 2000 yr, from 0–26 cal kyr BP (Before Present, 0 cal BP = AD 1950), and provide much higher resolution, greater precision, and more detailed structure than IntCal98. For the Marine04 curve, dendrochronologically-dated tree-ring…
Radiocarbon Calibration and Comparison to 50 Kyr BP with Paired 14 C and 230 Th Dating of Corals from Vanuatu and Papua New Guinea
We calibrated portions of the radiocarbon time scale with combined 230 Th, 231 Pa, 14 C measurements of corals collected from Espiritu Santo, Vanuatu and the Huon Peninsula, Papua New Guinea. The new data map 14 C variations ranging from the current limit of the tree-ring calibration [11,900 calendar years before present (cal BP), Kromer and Spurk 1998, now updated to 12,400 cal B P, see Kromer et al., this issue], to the 14 C-dating limit of 50,…
Extraterrestrial biophysics
Philosophers and others have been fascinated by the question of extraterrestrial life for centuries, but exobiology has never really taken off as serious science because of the lack of experimental data owing to the limitations of contemporary technology. This is now changing rapidly, with the discovery of evidence (inter alia) for life on earth quite soon after its formation, for an earthlike climate on early Mars, for a subsurface ocean on Jupi…
A High-Resolution Radiocarbon Calibration Between 11,700 and 12,400 Calendar Years Bp Derived from 230 Th Ages of Corals from Espiritu Santo Island, Vanuatu
This paper presents radiocarbon results from a single Diploastrea heliopora coral from Vanuatu that lived during the Younger Dryas climatic episode, between ca. 11,700 and 12,400 calendar yr bp. The specimen has been independently dated with multiple 230 Th measurements to permit calibration of the 14 C time scale. Growth bands in the coral were used to identify individual years of growth. 14 C measurements were made on each year. These values we…
A Large Drop in Atmospheric 14 C/ 12 C and Reduced Melting in the Younger Dryas, Documented with 230 Th Ages of Corals
Paired carbon-14 ( 14 C) and thorium-230( 230 Th) ages were determined on fossil corals from the Huon Peninsula, Papua New Guinea. The ages were used to calibrate part of the 14 C time scale and to estimate rates of sea-level rise during the last deglaciation. An abrupt offset between the 14 C and 230 Th ages suggests that the atmospheric 14 C/ 12 C ratio dropped by 15 percent during the latter part of and after the Younger Dryas (YD). This promi…
Mass Spectrometric 14 C and U-Th Measurements in Coral
We discuss U-Th and 14 C measurements in coral. Samples with U-Th dates in excess of 50 ka BP were chosen for study. Some bulk samples from this group have measurable 14 C dates, which range from 30 ka to 43 ka bp. These can be explained by 0.5–2.5% contamination by modern carbon. This small amount of contamination can produce significant offsets in 14 C dates of coral samples older than ≃10 ka. It may be undetectable in X-ray powder diffraction …
