Abstract
Abstract Using calibrated radiocarbon dates, this study investigates climate signals recorded in fluvial sedimentary archives from southern Poland, eastern Netherlands, and eastern Germany. Summed probability density functions (PDFs) were constructed and analyzed in the context of INTIMATE stratigraphy. The results indicate that fluvial sedimentation and erosion processes were closely linked to climate fluctuations, particularly during GS/GI and GI/GS transitions. The analyses indicate multi-scale relationships between regional geomorphological processes and global climate trends during the period from 50 to 15 cal kBP. This study provides a reconstruction of Late Pleistocene fluvial activity and highlights the need for more precise radiocarbon dates to refine correlations between regional and global climate events.
摘要:本研究利用校准的放射性碳年代,研究了波兰南部、荷兰东部和德国东部河流沉积档案中记录的气候信号。在INTIMATE地层学背景下,构造和分析了求和概率密度函数。结果表明,河流沉积和侵蚀过程与气候波动密切相关,特别是在GS/GI和GI/GS转换期间。在50 ~ 15 cal kBP期间,区域地貌过程与全球气候趋势之间存在多尺度关系。这项研究提供了晚更新世河流活动的重建,并强调需要更精确的放射性碳年代来完善区域和全球气候事件之间的相关性。
期刊介绍:
Radiocarbon serves as the leading international journal for technical and interpretive articles, date lists, and advancements in 14C and other radioisotopes relevant to archaeological, geophysical, oceanographic, and related dating methods. Established in 1959, it has published numerous seminal works and hosts the triennial International Radiocarbon Conference proceedings. The journal also features occasional special issues. Submissions encompass regular articles such as research reports, technical descriptions, and date lists, along with comments, letters to the editor, book reviews, and laboratory lists.
