The Svalhola Database

The Svalhola database: standardized and re-calibrated Holocene radiocarbon, luminescence and cosmogenic exposure ages from Svalbard. In total 1837 individual ages from 722 discrete locations. The data are organised in three individual (excel) tables: S1 contains all Holocene C14-ages and tephra layers identified in Svalbard, S2 contains all Holocene luminescence ages from Svalbard and S3 contains all Holocene cosmogenic exposure ages from Svalbard. There is a corresponding .shp file created for each one of the tables.
