Radiocarbon Geochemistry of Modern and Ancient Arctic Lake Systems, Baffin Island, Canada
Abstract
The accuracy of Arctic lake chronologies has been assessed by measuring the 14 C activities of modern carbon sources and applying these isotopic mass balances to dating fossil lake materials. Small (<1 km 2) shallow (<25 m) Arctic lakes with watersheds <12 km 2 have soil and peat stratigraphic sections with 14 C activities ranging from 98 to 51% Modern. The 14 C activity of particulate organic carbon, dissolved organic carbon, and dissolved inorganic carbon from lake and stream waters ranges from 121 to 95% Modern. The sediment–water interface of the studied lakes shows consistent 14 C ages of ∼1000 14 C yr, although the 14 C activity of living aquatic vegetation is 115% Modern. Radiocarbon measurements of components of the lacustrine carbon pool imply that the ∼1000 14 C yr age of the sediment–water interface results from deposition of 14 C-depleted organic matter derived from the watershed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
