año-varva


Explanation:
'Varve' también suele traducirse como 'laminación'.


Las varvas son estratos muy finos que se componen por una zona clara - gris en el inferior y una sección oscura - negra en el superior.Este conjunto se llama "varva" y representa un año. Una de los primeros métodos de datación absoluta era el conteo de las varvas en lagos del hemisferio norte. Hasta finalmente se generó un "calendario" de varvas - un listado con todas las secuencias en el contorno temporal. Lamentablemente los resultados solamente tenían validez en una zona definida. Pero era un método para contar años. Actualmente se usa el método en conjunto con la climatología - una gran ventaja de las varvas es su información climatológica - un registro natural de los hechos climáticos anuales.
