Description

Contemporaneous tree-ring dated wood, from trees in the northern and southern hemispheres, gives different ¹⁴C dates. Previous studies [Vogel et al., 1986; 1993] using wood from South Africa and The Netherlands have shown depletion's of −4.56 ± 0.85‰ and −5.12±0.62‰ respectively. This translates to age differences of 36±7 and 41±5 years (yrs) with the southern hemisphere giving the older dates. More recently, Stuiver and Braziunas [1998] have shown that an offset of 23±4 yrs exists between co...
