| Description | The focus of this paper is the conversion of radiocarbon ages to calibrated (cal) ages for the interval 24,000–0 cal BP (Before Present, 0 cal BP = AD 1950), based upon a sample set of dendrochronologically dated tree rings, uranium-thorium dated corals, and varve-counted marine sediment. The$ ^{14}$C age–cal age information, produced by many laboratories, is converted to $Δ^{14}$C profiles and calibration curves, for the atmosphere as well as the oceans. We discuss offsets in measured$ ^{l4}$C ages and the errors therein, regional$ ^{14}$C age differences, tree–coral$ ^{14}$C age comparisons and the time dependence of marine reservoir ages, and evaluate decadal vs. single-year$ ^{14}$C results. Changes in oceanic deepwater circulation, especially for the 16,000–11,000 cal BP interval, are reflected in the $Δ^{14}$C values of INTCAL98. |
