Uranium Series Dating is a radiometric dating technique used to determine the age of calcium carbonate materials, such as cave formations and coral. It relies on the decay of uranium isotopes into stable lead isotopes over time. By measuring the ratios of these isotopes, scientists can estimate the age of the sample. This method is particularly useful for dating geological and archaeological samples that are between 1,000 and 500,000 years old. It provides valuable information about past environmental conditions and human activities, helping researchers understand the history of Earth and its inhabitants.
