Abstract

The results of a multidisciplinary study of two Holocene tephras from lacustrine sediments of the Northern Okhotsk area are presented. A comprehensive characterization of the tephra, including magnetic properties, petrochemical and grain-size composition, magnetic–mineralogical data, and radiocarbon dating, is presented for the first time. The distinctive features of two tephra layers and their possible use as regional chronological markers of the Middle and Late Holocene are shown.
