Published online by Cambridge University Press: 18 July 2016
Extract
Procedures and equipment used in the University of Wisconsin laboratory have been described in previous date lists (Bender, Bryson & Baerreis 1965; Steventon & Kutzbach 1986). Except as otherwise indicated, wood, charcoal and peat samples are pretreated with dilute NaOH-NA4P2O7 and dilute H3PO4 before conversion to counting gas methane; when noted, marls and lake cores are treated with acid only. Very calcareous materials are treated with HCL instead of H3PO4.
