A 37,000-year record of paleomagnetic and environmental magnetic variability from Burial Lake, Arctic Alaska

Creator:

Dorfman, Jason Michael

Abstract:

Burial Lake sediments from the Noatak Basin in the northwest Brooks Range of Arctic Alaska (68.43°N, 159.17°W, 21.5 m water depth) provide the oldest continuous lacustrine record of paleo-environmental change and paleomagnetic secular variation (PSV) in eastern Beringia. A precise radiocarbon chronology, determined through accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) allows us...
