Abstract
Peatlands as a model system for exploring and reconciling Quaternary chronologies
Highlights
Many 14C-dated very abundant in peat and is mostly depeat chronologies possess centennialrived from the local, in situ, vegetation
Contemporary plant matter Even though most peat contains abundant matching dense series of 14C dates to wigon the bog surface becomes overgrown datable organic matter, it can be difficult gles in the calibration curve
Such numerical methods will eventually enhance our understanding of the possibilities and limitations of peat archives for reconstructing past environmental change
Summary
AD 1960 (van der Linden et al, diocarbon ages (Reimer et al, 2009) are solute ages for organic material such as 2008), and lead dating for peat younger often considerably larger than the original peat. Contemporary plant matter Even though most peat contains abundant matching dense series of 14C dates to wigon the bog surface becomes overgrown datable organic matter, it can be difficult gles in the calibration curve
