摘要: [1] Tephra found in an ice core from Greenland (GRIP) has been claimed to be the Minoan eruption of Thera (Santorini), Greece. If true, this would date eruption, thereby resolving a decades-long debate chronology. Herein, it is shown that methods used match Greenlandic tephra with are flawed and geochemical data imply not Thera.
