Chlorine-36 evidence for the mono lake event in the summit grip ice core, Earth Planet

Abstract A distinct peak has been discovered in the 36 Cl data from the GRIP ice core between the Dansgaard Oeschger (D^O) events 6 and 7 at approximately 32 kyr BP. This peak can be attributed to a minimum of the geomagnetic dipole field associated with the Mono Lake event. Since the 36 Cl peak ref...

Description
Summary:Abstract A distinct peak has been discovered in the 36 Cl data from the GRIP ice core between the Dansgaard Oeschger (D^O) events 6 and 7 at approximately 32 kyr BP. This peak can be attributed to a minimum of the geomagnetic dipole field associated with the Mono Lake event. Since the 36 Cl peak reflects a higher production rate of all cosmogenic radionuclides, it has an impact on the 14 C dating of the last ice age. Furthermore, it provides an additional time marker similar to a peak found earlier corresponding to the Laschamp event at approximately 39 kyr BP. ß
