New Production Rate Estimates for In Situ Cosmogenic 14C Bailey Dugan, Nathaniel Lifton, A.J. Timothy Jull University of Arizona Cronus-Earth/EU Workshop, Vancouver, July 12-13 2008 Funded By The U.S. National Science Foundation
Promontory Point Results • Site Production Rates Generally Consistent w/Earlier Estimates • Replicates • Unexplained Variability • Use Weighted Means • 05PPT-02 • Replicates Agree • >2 Below Site Weighted Mean • No Obvious Reason • Higher Position on 05PPT-01 Outcrop • Excluded from Further Analysis • Additional Analyses Planned 49.7 ± 1.3 w/05PPT-02 51.4 ± 0.8 w/o 05PPT-02 CRONUS-Earth
Corrie Nan Arr Results • Good Agreement Between Supra- and Sub-Glacial Boulders • Supports Assumption of Landslide Deposition on Retreating Glacier • Additional Analyses Planned CRONUS-Earth
