Evaluating post-glacial bedrock erosion and surface exposure duration by coupling in situ optically stimulated luminescence and 10Be dating [PDF]
Assessing the impact of Quaternary glaciation at the Earth's surface implies an understanding of the long-term evolution of alpine landscapes. In particular, it requires simultaneous quantification of the impact of climate variability on past glacier ...

Impact of glacial isostatic adjustment on cosmogenic surface-exposure dating [PDF]
Calculating cosmogenic-nuclide surface-exposure ages is critically dependent on a knowledge of the altitude of the sample site. Changes in altitude have occurred through time as a result of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA), potentially altering local nuclide production rates and, therefore, surface-exposure ages.

A new sampling technique for surface exposure dating using a portable electric rock cutter [PDF]
Surface exposure dating using in situ cosmogenic nuclides has contributed to our understanding of Earth-surface processes. The precision of the ages estimated by this method is affected by the sample geometry; therefore, high accuracy measurements of the

Lithological controls on light penetration into rock surfaces – Implications for OSL and IRSL surface exposure dating [PDF]
Luminescence surface exposure dating is a newly developed geochronological technique that allows the age of geological or archaeological rock surfaces to be accurately constrained. This dating method requires measuring and calibrating the depth-dependent luminescence signal below an exposed surface and relies on the assumption that neither the shape of

10Be surface exposure dating of the last deglaciation in the Aare Valley, Switzerland [PDF]
The combined Rhone and Aare Glaciers presumably reached their last glacial maximum (LGM) extent on the Swiss Plateau prior to 24 ka. Two well-preserved, less extensive moraine stades, the Gurten and Bern Stade, document the last deglaciation of the Aare Valley, yet age constraints are very scarce.

OSL surface exposure dating of a lithic quarry in Tibet: Laboratory validation and application [PDF]
Recent work has shown that the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) signal can be used to determine the duration of daylight exposure for rock surfaces, complementing the surface exposure dating technique using cosmogenic nuclides. In this study we investigate the feasibility of using the newly developed OSL Surface exposure dating technique (OSL ...

LGM and Late Glacial glacier advances in the Cordillera Real and Cochabamba (Bolivia) deduced from 10Be surface exposure dating [PDF]
Surface exposure dating (SED) is an innovative tool already being widely applied for moraine dating and for Late Quaternary glacier and climate reconstruction.

10Be surface exposure dating of the deglaciation of northernmost Norway and Finland [PDF]
During the Last Glacial Maximum, the coast of Finnmark county, northern Norway, was covered by the Scandinavian Ice Sheet (SIS), which coalesced with the Barents Sea Ice Sheet (BSIS) off the coast. The region is thus important for our understanding of the dynamic interactions between the BSIS and the SIS, yet it remains one of the least dated regions ...

Antarctic glacial chronology : new constraints from surface exposure dating [PDF]
Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution June 2000 ; Surface exposure dating, using the concentration of cosmogenic nuclides (3He, 21Ne, and 36Cl) in moraine boulders, combined with mapping of glacial moraines ...

Surface exposure dating of Late Pleistocene glaciations at the Dedegöl Mountains (Lake Beyşehir, SW Turkey) [PDF]
Abstract Situated on the interior side of the western central Taurus Mountains of SW Anatolia, the Muslu Valley in the Dedegöl Mountains (Mt Dipoyraz: 37° 37′ 07″ N, 31° 19′ 42″ E, 2992 m above sea level (a.s.l.)) represents the lower part of a formerly glaciated valley system of ∼7.5 km in length.
