How do we know that carbon dating is accurate?
How do we account for other factors that could affect the accuracy of carbon dating, such as changes in the atmosphere?
Carbon dating is subject to a number of potential inaccuracies, including changes in the atmospheric concentration of carbon-14 over time. However, scientists can account for these factors by comparing the levels of carbon-14 in a sample with the levels found in the atmosphere during the time the sample was alive.
