Add to ORKGPaper 49-4 As part of an evaluation of soil production functions (Wilkinson & Humphreys 2005, Wilkinson et al. 2005) we examined in detail a shallow (c. 80 cm), undisturbed forest soil on a sandstone plateau in south-eastern Australia. Soil production rates inferred from insitu cosmogenic nuclides (TCN) are of c. 10-20 m/Ma using 10Be, which are consistent with regional rates of <23 m/Ma of plateau lowering based on paleosurface reconstruction using Miocene basalts. In general terms this means that the soil profile could develop in c. 30-60 ka allowing for changes in bulk density. Large aliquot OSL dating of quartz sand showed a steady increase in age from 3.5 ka at 10 cm to 7.7 ka at 30 cm above a dispersed pebbly stone layer. Within the s...
