FIRST DIRECT RADIOCARBON DATING (22–27 CAL KA BP) OF MASSIVE ICE AT THE MECHIGMEN AND LAVRENTIYA BAYS COAST, EASTERN CHUKOTKA
ABSTRACT The Eastern Chukotka is considered a unique permafrost region where massive ice bodies are widespread. However, the origin and age of these ice formations are often discussed. The age of the massive ice of Chukotka was established for the first time using AMS 14 C dating. It was revealed th...
