Radiocarbon dating of the last glacial-interglacial transition (Ca. 14-9 (super 14) C ka BP) in terrestrial and marine records; the need for new quality assurance protocols.
The publication during the 1990s of Greenland ice-core records spanning the transition from the Last Cold Stage to the present interglacial (ca. 14-9 (super 14) C ka BP) presented new challenges to scientists working on marine and terrestrial sequences from this important time interval.
