concordia diagram
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: concordia diagrams
Senses: examples: text: The graphing of concordant U-Pb data on a concordia diagram does not provide any information that is not obvious from the individual U-Pb ages themselves. The principal value of the concordia diagram is its unique ability to yield crystallization ages from open systems.
ref: 1991, G. Brent Dalrymple, The Age of the Earth, Stanford University Press, page 117:
text: A concordia diagram is simply a plot of ^{₂₀₆}Pb^{\ast}/^{₂₃₈}U versus ^{₂₀₇}Pb^{\ast}/^{₂₃₅}U; that is, the number of atoms of radiogenic daughter produced to the number of atoms of radioactive parent. You should satisfy yourself that both of these ratios are proportional to time. In essence, the concordia diagram is a plot of the ^{₂₃₈}U-\!^{₂₀₆}Pb age against the ^{₂₃₅}U-\!^{₂₀₇}Pb age. The concordia curve on such a diagram[…]is the locus of points where the ^{₂₃₈}U-\!^{₂₀₆}Pb age equals the ^{₂₃₅}U-\!^{₂₀₇}Pb age. Such ages are said to be concordant.
ref: 2015, William M. White, Isotope Geochemistry, Wiley, page 78:
text: Concordia diagrams are the most common way to present U-Pb data in the modern literature, so understanding them is key to understanding the method.

Tera–Wasserburg diagram
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: Tera–Wasserburg diagrams
form: Tera-Wasserburg diagram
form: Tera–Wasserburg concordia diagram
Etymology: Named after geologists Fouad Tera and G. J. Wasserburg. From circa 1972.
Senses: examples: text: The axes of the Tera–Wasserburg diagram are the amounts of ^{₂₀₇}Pb (a stable, radiogenic isotope unconnected with uranium series decay) and ^{₂₃₈}U (the start of the uranium series decay chain), each adjusted and expressed as ratio to the amount of ^{₂₀₆}Pb (the stable end product of the uranium series).
text: One feature of the Tera–Wasserburg diagram is that for samples whose original lead content was both high and of unknown isotopic composition, the plotted points may lie on an isochron whose intersection with the ^{₂₀₇}Pb/^{₂₀₆}Pb axis gives the original lead composition and whose intersection with the concordia curve yields the age.
text: Unfortunately, zircons that have high common Pb contents often also display Pb loss. This can be checked in a Tera–Wasserburg diagram, provided that the zircons belong to a single population, since common-Pb correction should reduce the data to a single point on the concordia.
ref: 2012, Frank Vanhaecke, Patrick Degryse, Isotopic Analysis, Wiley-VCH, page 252:
text: For all practical purposes, such distinctions are generally significant more for the specialist geochronologists rather than the geologists who are interested in using the geochronological data; however, it is important to be aware that there are subtle differences between the types of Tera–Wasserburg diagrams that can be plotted and hence how the ages can be interpreted.

Wetherill diagram
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: Wetherill diagrams
form: Wetherill concordia diagram
Etymology: Named after American physicist George Wetherill. From circa 1956.
Senses: examples: text: The "x" and "y" axes of the Wetherill diagram are the quantities of the respective end (lead) isotopes of the actinium series and uranium series decay chains, each adjusted and expressed as a ratio to the amount remaining of the corresponding start (uranium) isotope.
text: In the Wetherill diagram, no isotope is found on both axes, allowing the two decay schemes to be evaluated independently.
text: However, these workers suggest that the age of the Amitsoq gneisses is closer to the true one when determined by the U-Th-Pb method on zircons, and the zircon isochron on the Wetherill diagram crosses the concordia in the point corresponding to 3600 m.y.
