Trapped-charge dating methods including luminescence and electron spin resonance
dating have high potential as low temperature (< 100° C) thermochronometers. Despite an …

The construction age of a pavement in a “Rodedian” prehistoric cult site in Negev desert,
Israel, is established by determining the burial age of (i) a cobble used in the pavement, and …

In classic loess areas research into dust deposition and concomitant environmental changes
has a long history and numerous well-investigated loess-palaeosol sequences provide …

In this study, we investigate the potential of rock surfaces to provide luminescence burial
ages for boulders from moraine deposits. We sampled four boulders from a terminal moraine …

The reconstruction of thermal histories of rocks (thermochronometry) is a fundamental tool
both in Earth science and in geological exploration. However, few methods are currently …

Here, we investigate the application of rock surface IRSL dating to chronology restrain
archaeological structures related to upland pastoralism. We applied the method to cobbles …

The dating of moraine deposits can present challenges to standard geochronological
methods; terrestrial cosmogenic nuclide (TCN), sediment luminescence and radiocarbon …

As part of the development of new laboratory lighting, we present a methodological
approach applicable to the characterization of any light source intended for illumination in …

Luminescence dating can potentially be applied to determine the burial ages of rock
surfaces. As part of testing the reliability and applicability of this technique, we sampled a …

Abstract Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) is a well-established Quaternary dating
method, which has recently been adapted to application in low-temperature …
