What is Radiometric Ages of Easter Island Volcanism about?

1) The document summarizes published radiometric age data for volcanic rocks on Easter Island. 2) It finds that most ages are consistent with volcanism over the past 0.78 million years, though a few older reported ages are considered unreliable based on inconsistencies. 3) The volcanism that formed the three major shields (Poike, Rano Kau, and Terevaka) is inferred to have occurred largely within the last 0.78 million years during the Brunhes normal polarity epoch.
