Review and assessment of the potential of post-IR IRSL dating methods to circumvent the problem of anomalous fading in feldspar luminescence
Quartz has been the main mineral used for optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating
of sediments over the last decade. The quartz OSL signal, however, has been shown to …
