RC13-189, V30-40, V22-182: Age control- 14C; Data source- CLIMAP, # 1976; Mix and Ruddiman, 1985. Note on RC24-12: Apparent negative xs231Pa values # at 135 and 155cm are the result of large authigenic U concentrations at these # depths. Negative xs231Pa values are undefined. # # Variables: # depth Depth (cm) # yrBP radiocarbon years B.P.
