Delay error

I wonder that nobody since noticed that the delay between the IntCal-C14 data and measured sunspots in the McInnes graph amounts to only 6, not 60 a. HJJHolm (talk) 09:58, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you mean. The scale at the top of the graph gives the timescale for InCal-C14, and is indeed delayed by 60 years... -- Leland McInnes (talk) 14:17, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Your time-scale is wrong. The original data-set ends with an imaginary time of -5, because the last data is given for 0 BP = +1950. Additionally, the original data are given at the bottom, that means the value e.g. of 1950 comprises the measurements from 1950 to 1955 (therefore the imaginary -5). Thus, for an optimal alignment, the original 0 has to become 1952,5 (AD). And finally, we meanwhile have IntCal2009 available. HJJHolm (talk) 15:20, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Well feel free to take the newer dataset and make an updated version of the plot ... -- Leland McInnes (talk) 22:01, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

I've not got the time for that, and you seem to be much more experienced in these wiki-graphs. Good luck, and do'nt mislead the readers too long! HJJHolm (talk) 06:15, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

Whilst not terribly temperate, HJJH is right about the timescales. C14 "present" is 1950. C14 year 0 is 1950. So I think you just need to update your labels William M. Connolley (talk) 13:58, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Nearly correct, please read my remark exactly ...HJJHolm (talk) 17:48, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
