Radiocarbon dating of deep-sea corals.
Deep-sea corals are a promising new archive of paleoclimate. Coupled radiocarbon and U-series dates allow (super 14) C to be used as a tracer of ocean circulation rate in the same manner as it is used in the modern ocean. Diagnetic alteration of coral skeletons on the seafloor requires a thorough cl...

Deep-sea corals are a promising new archive of paleoclimate. Coupled radiocarbon and U-series dates allow (super 14) C to be used as a tracer of ocean circulation rate in the same manner as it is used in the modern ocean. Diagnetic alteration of coral skeletons on the seafloor requires a thorough cleaning of contaminating phases of carbon. In addition, 10% of the coral must be chemically leached prior to dissolution to remove adsorbed modern CO (sub 2) .
