APPLICATION OF TERRESTRIAL COSMOGENIC NUCLIDES 10Be AND 26Al FOR THE GEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS – A METHOD OUTLINE AND STATE OF STUDIES IN POLAND

Abstract. The aim of this paper is to present a methodological introduction into cosmogenic radionuclides dating, summarizing the main research objectives, and an overview of the state of studies in Poland. Cosmogenic nuclides 3He, 10Be, 14C, 21Ne, 26Al and 36Cl are among the most common ones, being widely applied to analyses of geomorphological features and reconstructions of geological processes. Thereby they allow geochronological systematization of the Late Cenozoic, being of primary importance if traditional research methods fail. This approach has broad analytical potential for, i.e., dating of exposure history of different morphological features, estimation of denudation and erosion rates, as well as detailed reconstruction of glacial chronology
