U-Th isotope systematics from the Soreq cave, Israel and climatic correlations
Precise 230Th-234U ages were obtained on thirty-one growth laminae in speleothem samples which are self-consistent with the detailed layer stratigraphy. Samples with low 232Th/238U ratios give ages with analytical uncertainties of 40 years at 2 ky and 1000 years at 90 ky. Some growth zones with high...
