The emerging use of quartz luminescence properties to characterize Earth-surface
processes shows promise, with optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) sensitivity …

Trapped charge techniques of luminescence and electron spin resonance (ESR) are classic
tools for dating Quaternary deposits. Over the past decade, these techniques have been …

Quartz optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) sensitivity is varied and related to Earth
surface processes and, thus, it has been shown to be a useful tool for appraising sediment …

Quartz luminescence signals have been proven to be an effective index for identifying
sediment provenance. The provenance of quartz minerals on typical sandy coasts along the …

The coastal regions of South China are crucial for the emergence and migration of early
Austronesian hominids to Taiwan Island and the Pacific islands, but most Paleolithic sites in …

Mass movements play an important role in landscape evolution of high mountain areas such
as the Himalayas. Yet, establishing numerical age control and reconstructing transport …
