Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) was first observed from natural quartz 30 years
ago. Since it increases with exposure to radiation, OSL has been developed as a dating tool …

Luminescence dating techniques have been applied to a range of different types of coastal
and marine deposits, involving a variety of depositional processes and environments, as a …

Luminescence dating is a tool frequently used for age determination of Quaternary materials
such as archaeological artefacts, volcanic deposits and a variety of sediments from different …

Loess deposits preserve important records of Quaternary climate change and atmospheric
dust flux; however, their full significance can only be revealed once a reliable chronology is …

The temperature dependence, dose response and bleaching characteristics of the thermally
transferred optically stimulated luminescence (TT-OSL) of sedimentary quartz were studied …

An optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) age obtained from a Japanese tephra using
quartz phenocrysts severely underestimated the known age. The characteristics of the OSL …

Luminescence dating offers new opportunities to explore the evolution of Quaternary marine
coastal facies and landforms. This review highlights the main advances in luminescence …

This article demonstrates that violet (405nm) stimulated luminescence (VSL) signal from
quartz contains contribution from deep traps that are otherwise not accessible with blue light …

Sedimentary records from the inner-shelf of the East China Sea (ECS) are unique for the
reconstruction of post-glacial palaeoclimate and sea-level changes. So far, the chronology …

Abstract The Paleolithic sites Româneşti and Coşava, situated at the foothills of the Banat
Mountains in Romania, provide an important testament of life of the first European modern …
