  1. AMS measurement errors are at 1σ level, including the statistical (counting) error and the error due to normalization of the standards and blanks. The error weighted average 10Be/9Be full process blank ratio is (2.26 ± 0.32) × 10−15. Reported blank ratio and concentration are referenced to S2007N (Kubik and Christl 2010)
