“…IntCal20, compared to previous versions of the 14 C calibration curve, profits from a multitude of improvements in all 14 C archives beyond 14 cal kyr. These include new highresolution 14 C and U-Th data from Hulu Cave , reanalysis of the Lake Suigetsu timeline (Bronk Ramsey et al, 2020), updates in the calendar scale and MRA modeling of the Cariaco basin 14 C dataset (Hughen and Heaton, 2020), floating tree-ring 14 C sequences (Adolphi et al, 2017;Turney et al, 2010Turney et al, , 2016Capano et al, 2018Capano et al, , 2020, and modeling MRA time variations to correct the marine-based records (Butzin et al, 2020). These have then been combined using a more robust Bayesian spline statistical approach (Heaton et al, 2020b) that aims to identify shared features seen in multiple records without being overly influenced by individual outlying 14 C measurements that may not provide an accurate representation of atmospheric 14 C levels.…”
