Description

Depth profile sampling and analysis to constrain erosion rates and inheritance using cosmogenic ¹⁰Be concentrations at different depths below surface. Uses Monte Carlo modeling to determine exposure age and erosion parameters.

Typical Equipment

  • soil sampling tools
  • accelerator mass spectrometer

Output Measurements

  • erosion rates
  • exposure ages
  • inheritance values
