Snežna jama (Slovenia): Interdisciplinary dating of cave sediments and implication for landscape evolution.

Caves are important markers of surface evolution, since they are, as a general rule, linked with ancient valley bottoms by their springs. However, caves can only be dated indirectly by means of the sediments they contain. If the sediment is older than common dating methods, one has to use multiple dating approaches in order to get meaningful results.

Magnetic record associated with tree ring density: possible climate proxy.

A magnetic signature of tree rings was tested as a potential paleo-climatic indicator. We examined wood from sequoia tree, located in Mountain Home State Forest, California, whose tree ring record spans over the period 600 - 1700 A.D.
