Deglacial and Holocene sediment distribution in Hestvatn, South Iceland
Table 2. The chronology of the Hestvatn record of the GLAD4-HST03 cores is based on dated tephra layers
and radiocarbon dates of humic acid fraction of total dissolved organic carbon (h), microfossils (m) and ma-
rine molluscs (s). A 400-year reservoir correction is used for the marine carbonate ages according to results of
Sveinbjörnsdóttir et al. (1998) (corrected dates marked with *). Calibrated ages were obtained using the CALIB
program Rev. 4.4.2 (Stuiver and Reimer, 1993; Stuiver et al., 1998). Calibrated ages are presented with 1s and
95% confidence level. Date R = radiocarbon dated, I = interpolated radiocarbon date, W = wiggle-match of
radiocarbon dates, IC = ice-core age. H = historical account. – Aldursákvarðanir fyrir Hestvatnssetið byggjast
á þekktum gjóskulögum og geislakolsmælingum á skeljum, með 400 ára aldursleiðréttingu sjávar, samanber
niðurstöður Árnýjar E. Sveinbjörnsdóttur og fl. (1998). Leiðréttur aldur (merktur *), var fenginn með CALIB
forritinu Rev. 4.4.2 (Stuiver og Reimer, 1993; Stuiver og fl. 1998).
