Common sources of chronological uncertainties•Sampling interval
•Material dated vs. time of event or proxy change
•Transfer of timescale to companion cores
•Hiatuses and other sedimentary processes
•Bioturbation

Multiple dating methods – a problemAndrew Millard
How to combine 14C and 210Pb dates?
Current ‘obvious’ approach is: Calculate 210Pb dates based on a sediment accumulation
model combine with 14C dates to give new accumulation model which may not be consistent with the initial accumulation
model!
Uncertainties are not properly quantified
