EXAMINATION OF BULK SOIL/DETRITAL CHARCOAL AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF MATERIAL FROM PALEOSEISMIC TRENCHES AT CORRAL CREEK, CALIFORNIA

Author(s): Kathryn Puseman

Year: 2009

Summary

Six detrital charcoal samples and a single bulk soil sample were recovered from

paleoseismic trenches at Corral Creek in Kern County, California, and examined to recover

charred material suitable for AMS radiocarbon dating. Charcoal from six of the samples was

identified and dated. One of the detrital charcoal samples yielded insufficient quantities of

macroscopic charcoal; therefore, the sample was processed to recover microcharcoal for

dating.
