Journal on Method and Application of Absolute Chronology
Aims and scope
Geochronometria is aimed at integrating scientists developing different methods of absolute chronology and using them in different fields of earth and other natural sciences and archaeology. The methods in use are physical (e.g. radiocarbon and other isotopic methods, luminescence etc.) as well as non-physical (e.g. dendrochronology or varve chronology), and they are used in such diverse fields of science as geology, palaeoclimatology, palaeobiology, palaeohydrology, and archaeology. The common theme is that each method can be applied in many fields, and vice versa, each field can benefit from the application of many chronological methods. The journal enables an exchange of information about the potential and limitations of various chronological methods in solving specific problems in various branches of science, and stimulates formulation of new ideas and their further development and application. In the sense of classical division of sciences, Geochronometria is multidisciplinary which is a common feature of most modern research dealing with methods of absolute chronology.
