Luminescence dating of Late Quaternary sediments from East Greenland
Luminescence dating based on K‐feldspars and using both TL and OSL methods have been performed on 94 sediment samples from East Greenland. The ages go back more than 380 ka, but are mainly from the last interglaciation and the subsequent period and include both shallow‐marine/coastal‐fluvial and ice...
