Abstract
The status and the near future plans for the Brazilian AMS program are desc ribed. The 8 MV Tandem accelerator at the University of Sao Paulo (USP) is ready to measure standard AMS samples. A recently installed 1.7 MV Tandem a t the University of Rio de Janeiro will have a C-14 AMS line. Together with external laboratories, we developed some projects on paleoclimatic and mar itime geology. During these studies we have also learned sample preparation procedures.
