We are upgrading the repository! We will continue our upgrade in February 2025 - we have taken a break from the upgrade to open some collections for end-of-semester submission. The MS-GIST Master's Reports, SBE Senior Capstones, IPLP dissertations, and UA Faculty Publications collections are currently open for submission. Please reach out to repository@u.library.arizona.edu with your questions, or if you are a UA affiliate who needs to make content available in another collection.

dc.descriptionFrom the 16th International Radiocarbon Conference held in Gronigen, Netherlands, June 16-20, 1997.
dc.description.abstractWe present delta-13C data from both bulk organic sediment samples and terrestrial plant macrofossils from five high-resolution sedimentary sequences from the United Kingdom from which extensive multiproxy data sets have been obtained. These span the last glacial-interglacial transition. Chronological control has been provided by radiocarbon dating and/or tephrochronology. The results demonstrate that significant shifts in bulk organic delta-13C can be identified at key climatic transitions in most of the sites. The data are affected by site-specific influences that restrict their use as chronological markers. However, terrestrial plant macrofossil records are more consistent and reveal shifts that appear to be synchronous and which therefore offer a basis for interregional correlation as well as significant paleoenvironmental information.
