We have developed techniques for measuring 234U and 230Th on Faraday cups with
precisions of 1–3 epsilon units (1 ε-unit= 1 part in 104) using multi-collector inductively …

Understanding past climatic changes allows us to better understand how our planet will
evolve in the future. One important source of information on paleoclimate is the analysis of …

To facilitate the measurement of U–Th isotopic compositions suitable for high-precision and
high-resolution 230Th dating of coral and speleothem carbonates, secondary electron …

This review explores the potential for establishing valley incision chronologies from alluvium-
filled cave systems, and covers a total of 30 case studies since 1997. Caves in limestone …

Abstract At Quesang on the Tibetan Plateau we report a series of hand and foot impressions
that appear to have been intentionally placed on the surface of a unit of soft travertine. The …

Cueva Victoria has provided remains of more than 90 species of fossil vertebrates, including
a hominin phalanx, and the only specimens of the African cercopithecid Theropithecus …

We compared the suitability of two skeletal materials of the Atlantic brain coral Diploria
strigosa for 230 Th/U-dating: the commonly used bulk material comprising all skeletal …

Recent modeling and comparison with field results showed that soil formation by chemical
weathering, either from bedrock or unconsolidated material, is limited largely by solute …

Despite the increasing use of speleothems as high-resolution archives of past climate
proxies, few efforts have been made to improve understanding of diagenetic pathways …

Cryogenic cave carbonate (CCC) represents a specific type of speleothem whose
precipitation is triggered by freezing of mineralized karst water. Coarsely crystalline CCC …
