The effect of re-deposited organic material on radiocarbon measurements of clay samples from Somero, southwestern Finland

Abstract

Radiocarbon measurements of the organic material in the early Flandrian clays at Somero, southwestern Finland, supported the earlier conclusion, based on a study of the pollen and diatom content of these clays, that most of the microfossils and the organic material were re-deposited from interglacial Eemian sediments.
