This volume presents papers on the use of micro-XRF core scanners
in palaeoenvironmental research. It contains a broad ranging view
of instrument capability and points to future developments that
will help contribute to higher precision elemental data and faster
core analysis. Readers will find a diverse range of research by
leading experts that have used micro-XRF core scanners in a wide
range of scientific applications. The book includes specific
application papers reporting on the use of XRF core scanners in a
variety of marine, lacustrine, and pollution studies. In addition,
coverage also examines practical aspects of core scanner usage,
data optimisation and data calibration and interpretation. In a
little over a decade, micro-XRF sediment core scanners have made a
substantive contribution to palaeoenvironmental research. Their
impact is based on their ability to rapidly, non-destructively and
automatically scan sediment cores. Not only do they rapidly provide
important proxy data without damaging samples, but they can obtain
environmental data at decadal, annual and even sub-annual scales.
This volume will help both experienced and new users of these
non-destructive core scanners take full advantage of one of the
most powerful geochemical screening tools in the environmental
scientist's toolbox.
