Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Article on the impact of ploughing as a major agent of attrition to archaeological sites world-wide, and in particular on the need for resource managers to know how quickly a particular field is eroding, so that negotiation and protection is then possible. A new procedure presented which shows how variation in the concentration of the radioisotope 137Cs can be used to monitor soil movements over the last forty years. The measurements allow a site's `life expectancy' to be calculated, and there are some dividends for tracking site formation processes. | ||
