Age Models and Geochronology: An Introduction to Different Age-depth Modelling Approaches.

Age-depth models are the result of the integration of different geochronological techniques, and range from linear interpolation to more complex Bayesian techniques. Here, we will introduce several modelling concepts and their practical application in Excel and R. This course includes an introduction to the field of Bayesian age-depth models and will highlight the assumptions, benefits and limitations of different model approaches. These files have been created in the framework of the Basic Knowledge Course "Age models and Geochronology" at the GLOMAR doctoral school (MARUM, University of Bremen, Germany)
