What will I learn?
This course offers a hands-on guide to radiocarbon dating, covering field sampling, contamination prevention, lab preparation, AMS analysis, and calibration techniques. You'll learn to select optimal samples, construct reliable Bayesian chronologies, troubleshoot dating errors, and effectively share results with teams and stakeholders.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Professional 14C sampling: gather, label, and ship samples without contamination.
- Lab pretreatment skills: ready wood, charcoal, bone, and fabrics for AMS testing.
- Bayesian modelling: create solid chronologies with precise age estimates.
- Spot dating problems: identify outliers, old wood effects, reservoirs, and contaminants.
- Clear communication: present calibrated dates and uncertainties to non-experts.
