Basal dates of organic sediments of Carolina bays

Basal dates of organic sediments of Carolina bays mark hydrologic thresholds or episodes of paludification. Because water levels in Carolina bays are very sensitive to precipitation, these data can be used to clarify the record of more subtle, but ecologically important, shifts in Holocene climate.
