  • A revised high-resolution age–depth model for Żabieniec Mire, central Poland

    Open AccessMaksymilian Jędrzejowski, Danuta J Michczyńska et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2026

    Radiocarbon dating is fundamental for establishing chronologies in palaeoenvironmental reconstructions, but the scarcity of well-preserved terrestrial plant macrofossils may necessitate the use of bulk organic fractions or other alternative materials. This study, focused on the Żabieniec Mire (central Poland), addresses the critical challenge of chronological consistency by comparing radiocarbon ages derived from multiple organic fractions and ma…

  • A record of Late Pleistocene environmental conditions at the transition from central to southern Europe from the Baix loess paleosol sequence (Rhône Rift Valley, SE France)

    Open AccessNora Pfaffner, Annette Kadereit et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2026

    Loess–paleosol sequences (LPSs) provide valuable archives of Quaternary paleoenvironments. Here we present new data from the Baix LPS, comprising the entire Late Pleistocene. The Baix LPS is located at the western edge of the Rhône Rift Valley, France, in the transition zone from the presently temperate to the Mediterranean region of Europe. This LPS provides a missing link between the analyzed LPSs in the presently temperate regions farther nort…

  • Annual radiocarbon variability in southern South America recorded by Fitzroya cupressoides , AD 970–1084

    Open AccessChristine Hatté, Valérie Daux et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2026

    Annually resolved radiocarbon ( 14 C) records from tree rings provide a high-resolution archive for investigating short-term atmospheric 14 C variations driven by solar and cosmic activity, as well as terrestrial processes, including geomagnetic modulation, stratosphere–troposphere exchange, ocean–atmosphere interactions, and tree physiological traits. While extensive data are available for the Northern Hemisphere, comparable high-resolution reco…

  • Elucidating the use of rhinoceros teeth by Neanderthals

    Open AccessAlicia Sanz-Royo, Juan Marín et al.ARTICLEJournal of Human Evolution2026

    The use of faunal remains as tools by Neanderthals has long intrigued researchers. These remains include mammal teeth, which are particularly durable and resistant. Nevertheless, there is a significant gap in taphonomic analysis of dental remains, and archaeological experiments with tooth tools remain scarce. Recent studies suggest that Paleolithic groups may have used rhinoceros teeth as tools. This work seeks to elucidate this question by apply…

  • How precise can the calibration of a single radiocarbon measurement be

    Open AccessMaksymilian Jędrzejowski, Christine Hatté et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2025References: 14

    Radiocarbon dating is a widely used method in archaeology and earth sciences, but the precision of calibrated dates from single radiocarbon measurements can be difficult to understand. This study investigates the precision of calibrated radiocarbon dates depending on the uncertainties of the measurement and the details of the calibration curve. Using data for the Holocene epoch and the IntCal20 calibration curve, over 1,000,000 hypothetical radio…

  • Wetland landscapes in the Southern Maya Lowlands (Naachtun, Guatemala) from the ancient agroecosystems to the tropical biosphere reserve

    Open AccessCyril Castanet, Amaury Fernandes et al.ARTICLEGeoarchaeology2024Cited by: 2References: 23

    In the Biosphere Reserve of the Maya Lowlands, the large‐scale characterisation of the current wetlands ecology and the exploitation and management of their natural resources by the ancient Maya is severely constrained by the forest. This paper presents an integrated geomatic, geoarchaeological and ecological approach, developed to overcome this obstacle in the microregion of the Naachtun Maya city. It is based on the analysis of LiDAR, and field…

  • Radiocarbon Dating on Echo Micadas, Lsce, Gif-Sur-Yvette, France

    Open AccessChristine Hatté, Maurice Arnold et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2024Cited by: 2References: 35

    The Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l’Environnement (LSCE) has operated a radiocarbon dating laboratory for almost 70 years. It has evolved from a traditional ß-decay counting to an accelerator mass spectrometry facility. In 2015, the LSCE received a major upgrade with the installation of a MICADAS. This evolution required adjustments in sample preparation to match the new capability to date samples as small as a few tens of μgC. We summ…

  • C Microsample Analysis With Echomicadas Facilities

    Open AccessFrançois Thil, Nadine Tisnerat-Laborde et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2024References: 10

    In 2015, a new accelerator mass spectrometry facility (AMS), the ECHoMICADAS (Environnement, Climat, Homme, MIni CArbon DAting System), was installed in the Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l’Environnement (LSCE). Equipped with a hybrid source, it allows the analysis of solid or gas samples for 14 C measurement. Here, we summarize the equipment surrounding the Gas Interface System (GIS), namely the elemental analyzer (EA), the carbonate h…

  • Variability of Radiocarbon Reservoir Age Effects in Lakes and Rivers in Anatolia and Lesser Caucasus

    Open AccessMichel Fontugne, Christine Hatté et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2024References: 30

    Multiproxy sedimentary sequence analysis constitutes the basis for reconstructions of past paleoenvironments and climate evolution. These sequences are, for the most part, obtained by coring in lakes, maars or crater lakes whose waters can record volcanic activity or karstic contributions, especially in Eastern Anatolia and the Lesser Caucasus. The reservoir age effect in these geological contexts leads to an apparent aging of the radiocarbon age…

  • A Response to Community Questions on the Marine20 Radiocarbon Age Calibration Curve

    Open AccessTimothy J Heaton, Edouard Bard et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2022Cited by: 15References: 3

    Radiocarbon ( 14 C) concentrations in the oceans are different from those in the atmosphere. Understanding these ocean-atmospheric 14 C differences is important both to estimate the calendar ages of samples which obtained their 14 C in the marine environment, and to investigate the carbon cycle. The Marine20 radiocarbon age calibration curve is created to address these dual aims by providing a global-scale surface ocean record of radiocarbon from…

  • Experiments at Modane Underground Laboratory or the Swan Song of Radiocarbon Ss-Counting by Gas Proportional Counter

    Open AccessMichel Fontugne, Christine Hatté et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2022Cited by: 1References: 21

    In 1991, a 14 C ß-counting installation with four proportional CO 2 gas counters was tested at the Modane underground laboratory, 1700 m below the summit of Pointe du Fréjus, reducing the muon flux to 4 muons per square meter and per day. With cosmic radiation attenuated by a factor of 2.10 6 , the background level of the counters was reduced by 65 to 85% while its variability was reduced by a factor of 30–80 depending on the type of counter. The…

  • La datation au radiocarbone nous raconte l’histoire des instruments de musique modernes

    Open AccessMarie-Gabrielle Durier, Christine Hatté et al.ARTICLESpotlight2021

    Bien qu’un musicien transporte en quelques secondes son auditoire dans un autre temps, l’instrument de musique est souvent paradoxalement difficile à dater ! Objet d’art, d’usage, véhicule de valeurs culturelles, soumis aux modifications successives pour le mettre « au goût du jour », de quelle époque l’instrument ancien est-il vraiment ? Tenter de répondre à cette question nécessite de faire dialoguer plusieurs disciplines. Aujourd’hui, la datat…

  • Formation Processes of the Late Pleistocene Site Toca da Janela da Barra do Antonião – Piauí (Brazil)

    Ximena S Villagrán, Gelvam A Hartmann et al.ARTICLEPaleoAmerica2021Cited by: 2References: 12

    Archaeological research of late Pleistocene sites in northeastern Brazil has rarely analyzed site formation processes from a geoarchaeological perspective. This has contributed to the long-held debate over the reliability of Pleistocene ages and the anthropic origin of stone tools and combustion features. In this work, we combine high-resolution geoarchaeological methods to study the formation processes of the Toca da Janela da Barra do Antonião …

  • Radiocarbon Dating and the Protection of Cultural Heritage

    Open AccessI Hajdas, A J T Jull et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2019Cited by: 4References: 3

    The modern antiquities market uses radiocarbon ( 14 C) dating to screen for forged objects. Although this fact shows the potential and power of the method, the circumstances where it is applied can be questionable and call for our attention. Here we present an outline of a call to radiocarbon laboratories for due diligence and best practice approaches to the analysis of antique objects requested by non-research clients

  • Radiocarbon Dating of Legacy Music Instrument Collections

    Open AccessM G Durier, P Bruguière et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2019References: 9

    Although radiocarbon ( 14 C) dating is commonly used for archeological music instruments, little research has been conducted on modern instruments (16th–19th centuries). New technology, based on the Mini Carbon Dating System (MICADAS), enables some of the recurring challenges (e.g. sampling size) to be circumvented and paves the way for a new field of investigation. We here address the Indian instrumentarium, about which very little is known. We …

  • Turnover of the Soil Organic Matter Amino Acid Fraction Investigated by 13 C and 14 C Signatures of Carboxyl Carbon

    Open AccessChristine Hatté, Claude Noury et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2017References: 29

    Nitrogenous compounds of soil organic matter constitute a major N reservoir on Earth. Both the world food protein supply produced by agriculture and the global contamination by reactive nitrogen species rely on the dynamics of these compounds. To investigate their dynamics, we used both natural 13 C labeling and accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) 14 C dating of the α-carboxyl amino carbon, which is specific of the amino acid fraction that was ex…

  • New Data on a Pleistocene Archaeological Sequence in South America

    Eric Boëda, Roxane Rocca et al.ARTICLEPaleoAmerica2016

    Sítio do Meio, discovered in the 1990s, showed a sedimentary sequence clearly composed of two sets of deposits separated by a zone of large rockfall from the massive collapse of the shelter's overhang. The bottom set, slightly more than 60 cm thick, was trapped between the bedrock (upon which it rested) and the lower part of the roof fall (reaching more than 1 m in the excavation area), and yielded some charcoal without other archaeological mater…
