| Description | This project is still underway |
| Exploitation Route | Through the application of Radiocarbon dating |
| Sectors | Environment |
| Description | This project is for the NERC facility node at Oxford. There have been extensive uses of the analytical tools developed for the facility and made freely available in the commercial radiocarbon dating, archaeological and environmental science sectors. Primarily this the the program OxCal but also the contribution the facility has made to the international calibration curve for radiocarbon. |
