Moseley, Gina E.; Richards, David A.; Smith, Christopher; Smart, Peter L.; Hoffmann, Dirk L.; Farrant, Andrew R.. 2013 U-Th dating of speleothems to investigate the evolution of limestone caves in the Gunung Mulu National Park, Sarawak, Malaysia. Cave and Karst Science, 40 (1). 13-16.
Abstract
The Gunung Mulu National Park, Sarawak, Malaysia has been a focus of scientific research and exploration for several decades. Previous work investigated the relationship between fluvial incision into the limestone massif and the chronological evolution of the 500m-deep network of cave passages. This study involved analyses of newly available speleothem material using state-of-the-art U-Th dating methods and assessment of the potential for extension of the chronological record using U-Pb dating techniques.
