In the early 1990s , Bronk Ramsey became interested in the application of Bayesian statistics to the analysis of radiocarbon data . In 1994 , he authored OxCal , an online radiocarbon calibration program . Bronk Ramsey has made significant contributions to various chronological issues , including the Minoan eruption of Thera , the British Neolithic , the dispersal of modern humans out of Africa and the Egyptian chronology . His research interests also include the improvement of the radiocarbon calibration record . He is a member of the International Calibration ( IntCal ) group . His recent work has focused on improving the radiocarbon calibration record and synthesizing radiocarbon data with other chronometric information . In October 2012 , Bronk Ramsey published the first wholly terrestrial radiocarbon calibration record extending back to the limit of the technique
