Radiocarbon dates on Kauri wood performed at the Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit (NERC grant NE/H007865/1)

Radiocarbon dates on Kauri wood from the Late Glacial (Hogg et al 2016) and around Heinrich Event 3 (Turney et al 2016). The radiocarbon dates are on dendrochronological sequences of rings with known age separation and useful for calibration of other radiocarbon dates and looking at geophysical processes.
