It differs significantly from the adjacent date # L-727D (11500±200), but actual age of the wood may account # for this difference. On the other hand, date L-727A+B # (11300±200) on gyttja is almost certainly too old because of # old carbon. The extent of this problem with late-glacial # bulk-sediment dates in Minnesota was not recognized at the # time of Cushing's papers. # # Chron name: NAPD 1 # Age model: linear interpolation (+ extrapolation) # Age bounds: 11150 - 11160 # Chron notes: Chron uses 2 dates: (1) an average date of 10,900±200 and # 11,500±200 (11,200). (2) Pollen-stratigraphic date of 10,000 # BP for Picea decline.
