Abstract:
Each date is a radiocarbon age determined from Geological Survey of Canada
(Atlantic) sediment samples. Most were analyzed by commercial labs such as Beta
and Isotrace although some are from the GSC Radiocarbon Lab in Ottawa. The
data set includes all the analytical details and information on the material
dated. No assessment of the reliability or significance of the dates is
provided.The purpose
... of this data set of Geological Survey of Canada (Atlantic)
radiocarbon age dates from marine sediment samples is to provide information on
carbon age dating and geochronology. The age of seabed material is fundamental
to understanding the origin of the sediment and hence to predicting its lateral
continuity and behavior.
