Along with a number of refinements in graphic output, there are two main new features in the new edition, both supporting archaeological and palaeoclimate research in the Holocene and Glacial periods. First, the CalCurveComparer is completed. This is a twin-window dialog with easy-to-use functions (e.g Add & Remove files) to study the properties of all 14C data sets and climate proxies that may be of interest in refinement and Glacial extension of the 14C-age calibration curve. A climate box supports the synchronisation and visual fine-tuning of climate proxy age models (e.g. ice-cores) and corresponding (e.g. marine, lacustrine) 14C-data sets. Second, beginning with this edition of CalPal, all calibration programs are equipped with a slider, by which we have fingertip control over the shape of the calibration spline. This feature will be useful when studying the influence of the calcurve shape on radiocarbon age models.
