IGCP 725: Virtual Workshop on Radiocarbon Dating – From Cores to Code

19 January, 2022

This workshop is free and will be fully virtual. Following the theme of IGCP 725, it will cover the basics “from cores to code”. Topics will include: field sampling strategies across environments and timescales of interest; sample handling and preparation; a behind-the-scenes look at 14C lab analyses, including cutting-edge radiocarbon tools; processing and calibration of 14C results; and age-depth modeling.

Details and the full list of proposed topics can be found in the attached PDF flyer and on the websitePlease register by January 7 at this link: [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdaVeJaXZ-nqC8a2YM0g4LjiJch13SeugBZqQaNsalxy5UoVQ/viewform]
