Table

Table 1: Step-by-step data reduction of the Naxos dataset of 11 inclusion-bearing apatites (with an arithmetic mean age of 11.58 $\pm$ 0.20 Ma). This table should be read from a to c and from left to right: (a) U, Th and He abundances and pooled age (11.28 $\pm$ 0.14 Ma). [He$^*$] is the $\alpha$-ejection corrected He-abundance ([He$^*$] $\equiv$ [He]/F$_t$); (b) The U, Th and He concentrations, required for the calculation of a (U-Th)/He isochron. The isochron-age is 12.0 $\pm$ 4.2 Ma. (c) logratio transformed data (V,W) and the (dimensionless) geometric mean composition, resulting in the central age of 11.38 $\pm$ 0.20Ma.
