EXAMINATION OF BULK SOIL FOR RADIOCARBON DATABLE MATERIAL FROM THE SURPRISE VALLEY, NORTHEASTERN CALIFORNIA

Author(s): Kathryn Puseman

Year: 2005

Summary

Seven bulk soil samples from the Surprise Valley of northeastern California were

floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. These samples were

recovered from trench and stream exposures across a fault scarp in latest Quaternary

lacustrine, colluvial, and debris-flow sediments. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were

identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated.
