Radiometric Age Calibration of Varnish Microstratigraphy, Western USA

Figure Caption    LU = Layering Unit, WH = Wet event in Holocene, WP = Wet event in Pleistocene. Please see Liu (2003) and Liu and Broecker (2006, 2007) for more discussion on radiometric age calibration of varnish microstratigraphy.

Figure Caption    LU = Layering Unit, WH = Wet event in Holocene, WP = Wet event in Pleistocene. Note that the varnish record of Holocene wet events is generally correlated with the deep sea sediment record (Bond et al., 1999), rather than with the GISP2 ice core record as seen in this figure. Please see Liu and Broecker (2006, 2007) for more discussion on radiometric age calibration of varnish microstratigraphy.
