Abstract

A new generation of XRF core scanners allows rapid, non-destructive acquisition of high-resolution geochemical and X-radiographic data from lacustrine sediment cores, facilitating new approaches to many applications in paleolimnology, including pollution detection, varve counting, and estimation of past ecosystem productivity.
