Abstract

<p>This paper reviews principles and basic modeling in application of terrestrial cosmogenic nuclides for dating landforms. The models incorporate rates of post-exposure denudation or sedimentation of the surfaces as well as amounts of inheritance reflecting the pre-exposure history of the analyzed mineral grains. Some examples from the model outputs demonstrate applicability and limitations of this method. Several analytical strategies are also mentioned, including depth-profiling of the nuclide concentration and evaluation of the inheritance for determining accurate ages of the landforms.</p>
