Geoscientists use radiocarbon, or carbon-14, to establish a chronology of Earth’s processes. Because of the 5,730 ± 40 year half-life of this isotope, carbon-14 dating is used in disciplines like geology, archaeology, geochemistry, oceanography, forensic sciences, and more. Levels of carbon-14 in the atmosphere have varied greatly. This variation has natural causes, such as solar magnetic activity and ocean circulation, but since the industrial period, they can also be anthropogenic, such as the burning of fossil fuels or nuclear bombs and tests.

Annual Review of Materials Research, Volume 48, 2018
₹29,329.00Additive manufacturing (AM) has skyrocketed in visibility commercially and in the public sector. This article describes the development of this field from early layered manufacturing approaches of photosculpture, topography, and material deposition. Certain precursors to modern AM processes are also briefly described. The growth of the field over the last 30 years is presented. Included is the standard delineation of AM technologies into seven broad categories.
