Fig. 2: Abadi Cave stalagmites analysed for this study.
From: Multi-proxy validation of glacial-interglacial rainfall variations in southwest Sulawesi
Photos of polished surfaces with sample milling tracks (black lines). U-Th date locations (black circles) are shown for each stalagmite. Note the uniform growth structure and clearly visible laminae on the slower-growing stalagmites, AC09-04 and AC11-06. The faster-growing stalagmites, AC11-02 and AC11-03, tend to be broader and less uniform (varying diameter), with subtle and intermittent laminae. AC11-03 contains growth unconformities (yellow bars); these segments are excluded from the analysis. Three U-Th dates associated with these unconformities (yellow circles) are excluded from the final age-depth model.
