Description

The High-purity Germanium (HPGe) detector will be used for non-destructive 210Pb and 137Cs dating of lake sediment records. This instrument will be used to develop chronologies for lake sediment records over the last approximately 150 years based on the decay curve of 210Pb radioisotopes (with a half life of 22.3 years) in the sediment record in relation to other radioisotopes in the Uranium decay series. The chronologies developed using this instrument will be used to support paleolimnological and paleoecological studies on environmental change over the last few centuries.
