Abstract

This report deals with the allocation of dates to 10 sediment cores taken from Loch Caire nan Arr in February 1994 under contract RC01513. An earlier report (Barlock & Rose, 1994) has given site details, sampling and analytical methodologies and they will not be repeated here. The 10 cores (CNAl to CNAlO inclusive) were analysed for percentage dry weight, percentage loss-on-ignition and spheroidal carbonaceous particle (SCP) concentration. These data were also presented in the earlier report. CNA9 was dated using a chronology constructed from the radioisotope 210Pb and it is the aim of the present report to show how core correlations between CNA9 and the other cores enable dates to be allocated to the other 9 cores. This will then enable appropriate sediment levels to be amalgamated for subsequent dioxin analysis by AEA.
