Constraining Holocene 10 Be production rates in Greenland
Abstract The absence of a production rate calibration experiment on Greenland has limited the ability to link 10 Be exposure dating chronologies of ice‐margin change to independent records of rapid climate change. We use radiocarbon age control on Holocene glacial features near Jakobshavn Isbræ, wes...
