intcal13: IntCal13 calibration curve

Description

The IntCal13 Northern Hemisphere radiocarbon age calibration curve on a calendar grid spanning from 50,000--0 cal yr BP (Before Present, 0 cal yr BP corresponds to 1950 CE).

Note: This dataset provides 14C ages and F14C values on a calendar age grid. This is different from the 14C ages and Δ14C values provided in oxcal .14c files.
