  1. Baranof Island glaciers persisted into the Holocene and then retreated rapidly
    Cosmogenic dating and sediment cores reveal glacial history of Baranof Island and document tenfold acceleration in glacier retreat since 1986, with implications for sea-level rise.
  2. Carbon black cave art in Dordogne was directly dated
    Radiocarbon dating reveals carbon black Paleolithic cave art at Font-de-Gaume in France's Dordogne region, establishing chronological constraints on previously undocumented prehistoric artistic.
