User talk:Hokanomono

Hi there. As your talk page is still empty, I was going to paste my standard welcome message on here. But as you've been around nearly as long as me (I'm surprised no-one's said hello yet) it would seem patronising to send you lots of links for how Wikipedia works. Welcome anyway - feel free to talk to me if there is anything you need to know. --ALargeElk 09:58, 19 May 2004 (UTC)
 * Thanks! – Hokanomono 11:04, 19 May 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for the lively debate on "kamikaze", "tokkootai", etc here and on Wiktionary. It's hard to get this stuff right with so little in the usual dictionaries where you'd expect to find them and when it's a bit of a tough subject to bring up with my own Japanese friends. &mdash; Hippietrail 16:26, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I've merged the content and page "counter word" created by u to page "measure word". Is the result page ok?

radiocarbon spike
Thanks for the graph. Can you please:
 * redraw it using % on the vertical scale?
 * plot also the levels in the Northern Hemisphere?

Thanks in advance. Jclerman 21:26, 9 February 2006 (UTC)


 * The scale is in permil relative to a standard as this notation is conventionally used in radiocarbon science. I see that percent would be easier ot understand for many readers, therefore I will show percent values on the second scale.
 * I'm sorry, do not have data for the northern hemisphere. If you have the data, I will add it to the plot. Otherwise, I think the northern hemisphere delta-C-14 is about the same as for the southern hemisphere. Maybe we should rephrase the description in order not to lead people to the wrong belief, that this is a special southern hemisphere phenomenon.


 * Thank you for your feed-back. --Hokanomono ✉ 23:06, 20 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your interest in expanding the graphic information. As a matter of fact, despite your opinion, the Southern Hemisphere spike is very different from the Northern one. We did make good use of the difference to track origin of biogenic materials. I do not have numeric data immediately available, since I archived it after the calibration conference in the 1980s. But you can see a graph on this web site and look for numeric data, e.g., in the Radiocarbon Journal. You might be able to access it online via your library. Meanwhile, enjoy the Utrecht graph. It's at the bottom of the page linked above. Jclerman 04:17, 21 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Then I'll write a description of how we used the difference to determine both date and geographic origin of caffeine, wine, etc. which is of interest for other wikipedia articles. Jclerman 04:17, 21 February 2006 (UTC)


 * I strongly suggest you use only one scale, and in percent. Otherwise you would have to explain the lower case delta and the upper case delta and the C-13 correction and the article will become too complex for the average reader. That's why I put the formulae as an appendix note. But that is onlhy my opinion. Jclerman 04:21, 21 February 2006 (UTC)


 * I have updated the plot now. Actually it's another file: [[Image:Radiocarbon bomb spike.svg|150px]].
 * Finally I have found data on the northern hemisphere. I use pMC now instead of D14C. This should be the easiest to understand and the conversion was a good excersice. (I am rather new to AMS.) Hokanomono ✉ 23:20, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
