Towards a Tephrochronology for the Lakselv Peat Sequence in Finnmark County, Northern Norway / Mot en Tefrokronologi för Torvsekvensen i Lakselv i Finnmark Län, Norra Norge

Höglund, Anny January 2017 (has links)
To provide an increased breadth in the knowledge of tephra dispersal, this pilot study examines a peat core from Lakselv in Finnmark County in northern Norway. Peat samples are exposed to burning, HCl, density separation and polarized light microscopy. One sample from a depth of 37.5-40 cm was analysed using an electron microprobe analyser (EMPA). At least two tephra horizons were identified, one at a depth of 12.5-17.5 cm and one at 37.5-40 cm. The lower horizon shows a chemical composition similar to eruptives from Jan Mayen and São Miguel, Azores while the origin of the upper horizon is unknown as no geochemical analysis was performed for that depth.
