Geochronological Dating
Geochronological dating is the determination of absolute ages of rocks and minerals using the decay of radioactive isotopes. Pioneered by Rutherford and Soddy (1902), this method provides numerical anchors for geological timescales and enables quantitative understanding of geological processes. Modern techniques (K-Ar, Rb-Sr, U-Pb, 40Ar/39Ar) span from recent to ancient events and are essential for calibrating relative chronologies and assessing rates of geological change.
