I believe that Gya has been superseded by Ga in technical literature. Anyone have a problem if I move this? Cheers - Williamborg ( Bill) 03:48, 6 January 2010 (UTC) reply

No, Gya has not been superseded. Both terms are in use in the technical literature, and they are used differently. Ga just means a giga-annum (a billion years) and may also be used in contexts other than the past (such as half-lives of certain isotopes or future galactic evolution), whereas Gya means a billion years ago, denoting a specific point of time in the past. — Lowellian ( reply) 17:23, 18 September 2011 (UTC) reply
