Cosmogenic nuclides as a surface exposure dating tool: improved altitude/latitude scaling factors for production rates

Applications of in situ cosmogenic nuclides to problems in Quaternary geology require increasingly accurate and precise knowledge of nuclide production rates. Production rates depend on the terrestrial cosmic-ray intensity, which is a function of the elevation and geomagnetic coordinates of a sample...
