High-resolution OSL dating of a coastal sediment sequence from the South Yellow Sea

, 2016
The coastal sediments of the South Yellow Sea (SYS) provide a record of regional land– sea interactions. This study investigated the applicability of optical dating, using coarse-grained quartz, to provide a chronology of these sediments.

Luminescence dating of core sediments from the southern coastal Bohai Sea, China, and its implications for transgression history during the Late Quaternary

Frontiers in Marine Science
Several marine strata have developed along the southern coastal Bohai Sea since the Late Quaternary, preserving abundant records of sedimentary evolution. This region is ideal for studying the sedimentary history of a river–sea interaction area. However,

Single-Grain Quartz OSL Characteristics: Testing for Correlations within and between Sites in Asia, Europe and Africa

Methods and Protocols, 2019
We studied the characteristics of the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) signal of single-grain quartz from three sites in China, Italy, and Libya, including the brightness, decay curve and dose response curve (DRC) shapes, recuperation, and ...

Luminescence dating approaches to reconstruct the formation of plaggic anthrosols [PDF]

SOIL
Plaggic anthrosols demonstrate the significant and widespread influence of agriculture on the landscape of northern Europe and testify to increased land-use intensity over the last millennium.

Terrace reconstruction and long profile projection: a case study from the Solent river system near Southampton, England [PDF]

, 2012
River terrace sequences are important frameworks for archaeological evidence and as such it is important to produce robust correlations between what are often fragmentary remnants of ancient terraces.

Combining bulk sediment OSL and meteoric 10 Be fingerprinting techniques to identify gully initiation sites and erosion depths [PDF]

, 2017
Deep erosional gullies dissect landscapes around the world. Existing erosion models focus on predicting where gullies might begin to erode, but identifying where existing gullies were initiated and under what conditions is difficult, especially when ...

Quantification of three-dimensional folding using fluvial terraces: A case study from the Mushi anticline, northern margin of the Chinese Pamir

, 2013
Fold deformation in three dimensions involves shortening, uplift, and lateral growth. Fluvial terraces represent strain markers that have been widely applied to constrain a fold's shortening and uplift.

Murray-Darling basin freshwater shells: riverine reservoir effect [PDF]

, 2009
We report carbon isotope measurements on pre-bomb museum samples of freshwater mussel shells collected alive from riverine locations in New South Wales, Australia. The calculated reservoir ages, ranging from -60 to +112 years, are much smaller than those
