Variability of the 14C reservoir effects in Lake Tangra Yumco, …
The recent sedimentation rate of modern lakes is widely used as an independent method to calibrate 14 C-derived chronologies because 14 C values are often affected by a reservoir effect. Terrestrial plant residues in lake sediments are believed to be the ideal material for 14 C dating because they normally provide the true ages of the …
210Pb dating of recent sediments from the continental shelf …
Several cores from the continental shelf of the Arabian Sea along the Indian Coast were investigated for change in sedimentation rates duly constrained for chronology based on 210Pb and 137Cs dating techniques. The emphasis was to look for spatial and temporal variation in the sedimentation rate along the continental shelf of eastern …

Support for land-use as a variable influencing sedimentation rates in our east coast North American dataset is strengthened by comparing these recent sedimentation rates with Holocene-scale rates (the latter dataset was comprised of 291 records compiled by Webb and Webb 1988).
