Silicon-32 as a tool for dating the recent past
2009, Quaternary GeochronologyCitation Excerpt :A dating tool for this time range would cover three important epochs: the impact of European colonisation and industrialisation during the last 300 years, the Little Ice Age between AD 1650 and 1850, and the last part of the Mediaeval Climatic Optimum. Since its detection by Lal et al. (1960), cosmogenic 32Si has been employed to understand environmental processes such as glacier dynamics, ocean and atmospheric circulation, sedimentation in lakes and oceans, and groundwater flow (Dansgaard et al., 1966; Nijampurkar et al., 1966; Kharkar et al., 1969; Lal et al., 1970, 1976; Krishnaswamy et al., 1971; Clausen, 1973; Somayajulu et al., 1973, 1991; DeMaster and Cochran, 1982; Fröhlich et al., 1987; Martin et al., 1992; Nijampurkar and Rao, 1992; Morgenstern et al., 1995, 1996, 2000, 2001; Craig et al., 2000). Silicon-32 is produced in the atmosphere via spallation reactions of 40Ar nuclei with cosmic rays, principally fast neutrons with energies of a few hundred MeV.
