Surface exposure dating with cosmogenic nuclides
S Ivy-Ochs, F Kober - E&G Quaternary Science Journal, 2008 - egqsj.copernicus.org
In the last decades surface exposure dating using cosmogenic nuclides has emerged as a
powerful tool in Quaternary geochronology and landscape evolution studies. Cosmogenic …

Boulder height–exposure age relationships from a global glacial 10Be compilation
Cosmogenic exposure dating of glacial boulders is commonly used to estimate the timing of
past glaciations because the method enables direct dating of the duration a boulder has …

Quaternary glaciation and hydrologic variation in the South American tropics as reconstructed from the Lake Titicaca drilling project
A 136-m-long drill core of sediments was recovered from tropical high-altitude Lake Titicaca,
Bolivia-Peru, enabling a reconstruction of past climate that spans four cycles of regional …

Improved moraine age interpretations through explicit matching of geomorphic process models to cosmogenic nuclide measurements from single landforms
The statistical distributions of cosmogenic nuclide measurements from moraine boulders
contain previously unused information on moraine ages, and they help determine whether …

The age and extent of tropical alpine glaciation in the Cordillera Blanca, Peru
Based on new 10Be data for moraines in the Cordillera Blanca of central Peru, we have
calculated model ages of three sets of Pleistocene glacial moraines. In order of decreasing …

Chronology of glaciations in the Sierra Nevada, California, from 10Be surface exposure dating
We use 10Be surface exposure dating to construct a high-resolution chronology of glacial
fluctuations in the Sierra Nevada, California. Most previous studies focused on individual …

Clastic sediment flux to tropical Andean lakes: records of glaciation and soil erosion
We developed records of clastic sediment flux to 13 alpine lakes in Peru, Ecuador, and
Bolivia, and compared these with independently dated records of regional glaciation. Our …
