Meanwhile, another erratic boulder sample 060131-4, coming from vicinal ice surface, has ^10Be and ^26Al minimum exposure ages of 0.47 ±0.3 Ma and 0. 44 ±0.04 Ma, respectively. The exposure ages of the three erratic boulders are nearly similar to the bedrocks with the similar elevation. Thus, using the technique of in situ produced terrestrial cosmogenic nuclides, the ice sheet evolution histories in the Grove Mountains reflected by erratic boulder and bedrock exposure ages are basically consistent.展开更多

The diversification of the event-space moments Cp, q of single-event moments with the diminishing of phase space scale, called 'erraticity', observed in experiment can readily be reproduced by a flat probability distribution with only statistical fluctuations and therefore it has nothing to do with chaos as suggested.
