Radiocarbon (14C) in particular is a key environmental tracer that can be widely applied in geochronology, environmental, and climate sciences. It is an invaluable tool to understand the global carbon cycle, as it can be used to trace the transfer of carbon between the atmosphere and other reservoirs, e.g., soils, oceans, and the geosphere, and to understand the impact of anthropogenic perturbations on these reservoirs.
With this session, we aim at bringing together an interdisciplinary group of researchers focused on dating and understanding climate archives of the Quaternary Period. Our session will focus on the application of geochronometers on one hand, as well as on the use of radiocarbon from natural reservoirs and archives that improve our understanding of the carbon cycle. In particular, we look forward to discussing (1) experimental and analytical advances (e.g. in sample preparation and measurement techniques); (2) methods that reduce, quantify and express dating uncertainties in any dating method, including high-resolution radiocarbon approaches; (3) new insights into the global carbon cycle, e.g., storage times in soils, sediment dispersal, ocean circulation, or carbon transfer between reservoirs; (4) general geochronological applications such as long-term landscape evolution, rates of geomorphological processes, and chronologies for records of climate change.
