EXAMINATION OF BULK SOIL FOR RADIOCARBON DATABLE MATERIAL FROM ALONG THE LOWER PECOS RIVER, NEW MEXICO

Author(s): Kathryn Puseman

Year: 2004

Summary

A total of five bulk soil samples from along the Lower Pecos River near Carlsbad, New

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

samples were collected as part of the paleoflood frequency analyses for Brantley and Avalon

Dams. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon

datable material was separated.
