Since some of the dates are on shell, would anyone have an idea as to the appropriate marine offset to use? I've looked in the 1986 RADIOCARBON volume with the maps, but don't see any delta R values even close to these 2 parts of the world. Any reference in English, French, Russian or Japanese would be appreciated.

Effective 13 January, subscriptions to the current volume (Vol. 38) are reduced from $85 to $55/year for new subscribers. All individual subscriptions to Volume 39 will also be at $55/year. We're doing this for a couple of reasons. First, our ratio of individual:institutional subscription prices has been higher than the norm for academic journals of our type (our institutional price is $115). Second, as libraries worldwide respond to cost increases by cutting their serials subscriptions, we want to make it easier for individual scholars and researchers to have their own subscriptions. Volume 38 includes the abstracts of the 7th International Conference on Accelerator Mass Spectroscopy, a special-topic issue on Soils Dating edited by Doug Harkness and Peter Becker-Heidmann (in press), and a special-topic issue on Oceans edited by Ellen Druffel, Ann McNichol, and Warren Beck. Individual subscriptions to RADIOCARBON include the triennial conference proceedings issue from the international radiocarbon conferences, too. (The next one is scheduled for Volume 40, 1998).
