RESERVOIR EFFECT OF THE SOUTHERN AND SOUTHEASTERN BRAZILIAN COAST
Abstract
A regional marine reservoir correction (ΔR) of 33 24 14C yr for southern Brazil was obtained from 6 marine
shell samples collected in the states of Santa Catarina and Paran. This work also presents a ΔR estimation of 8 17 14C yr
for the southern and southeastern Brazilian coast from the states of Rio de Janeiro to Santa Catarina, obtained by including 7
ages published in previous works. The high variability of R in modern and Holocene samples from the Brazilian coast is also
discussed.
