background

Checks which of the Pb-210 data most likely have reached background levels and thus are below the detection limit Al (probabilities between 0 and 1)

An approach to age-depth modelling that uses Bayesian statistics to reconstruct accumulation histories for deposits, through combining radiocarbon and other dates with prior information on accumulation rates and their variability. See Blaauw & Christen (2011).
