Summary: | This dataset includes sample information and metadata necessary for calculating 10Be ages of boulders and bedrock. There 42 samples that have been prepared and measured for 10Be dating. These samples were prepared at the cosmogenic nuclide laboratory at Dartmouth College and were measured at the Center for Accelerator Mass Spectrometry at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The samples are arranged by site and the data provided can be used in the CRONUS-EARTH online calculator found here: http://hess.ess.washington.edu/. There are 5 samples from boulders on drift and moraines near Thule Air Base; 14 samples of boulders and bedrock exposed by deglaciation of the Greenland Ice Sheet subsequent to the Last Glacial Maximum; 7 samples of boulders on drift near Nuna Ramp in Nunatarssuaq; 3 samples of boulders on drift near the outflow of Nordso in Nunatarssuaq; 5 samples of boulders on historical drift of the Greenland Ice Sheet in Nunatarssuaq; and 8 samples of boulders on historical drift of the North Ice Cap in Nunatarssuaq. |
