2.2 Chronology
The sedimentary chronology for Huguangyan Maar Lake is based on 14 AMS14C dates from handpicked leaves and/or other
terrestrial plant macrofossils, together with analyses of137Cs and 210Pb concentrations
(Table 1; Figure 2; Supplementary Figure S1). The results of radiometric
dating (137Cs, 210Pb,
AMS14C) have been presented previously (Chu et al.,
2017; Wang et al., 2016).
