Lead-210 and radium-226 measurements by direct gamma assay can now provide a record of changing concentrations in lake sediments sufficiently reliable and precise to form a suitable basis for age/depth and dry-sedimentation-rate calculations. There are additional benefits in terms of non destructive sample preparation and simultaneous assay for other environmentally significant gamma-emitting radioisotopes (e.g.137Cs and241Am). Results from L. Fleet, S. W. Scotland illustrate the value of this approach especially in lakes with disturbed catchments where variable input of supported210Pb has occurred.
