EXAMINATION OF SEDIMENT FOR RADIOCARBON DATABLE MATERIAL FROM ALONG THE QUINAULT RIVER, WASHINGTON
Author(s): Kathryn Puseman
Year: 2004
Summary
A single sediment sample from along the Quinault River in the western Olympic
Peninsula, Washington, was floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon
analysis. This sample was recovered from a natural exposure along the river and is believed to
represent silt that was likely deposited in Lake Quinault when it was higher than at present.
Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable
material was separated.
