Abstract

Cosmogenic nuclide measurements are commonly biased by weathering within the cosmogenic nuclide production zone. The code package “WeCode” (Weathering Corrections for denudation rates) integrated within the CRONUScalc v2.1 (Marrero et al., 2016) software performs weathering corrections and calculations, as well as offering pixel-by-pixel catchment production rate estimates for alluvial samples. Weathering corrections can be applied for weathering within the regolith or along the regolith-bedrock interface, as is common in carbonate bedrock. The methods for the weathering corrections are described in Ott et al. submitted. Please refer to the README for information on how to use the software. A set of input examples and scripts is provided for illustration.

A modified version of Cronuscalc v2.1 (Marrero et al., 2016) is provided alongside.
