The reconstruction of glacial evolutions in these regions has been hindered by insufficient chronological data for moraines and other glacial landforms. In this study, glacial sediment samples were collected from five moraine sequences located on the southern and northern slopes of the Yuzhu Peak in the Kunlun Mountains. These poorly bleached moraine samples were dated using the single-grain quartz optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) and K-feldspar post-infrared infrared stimulated luminescence (pIRIR) dating methods.

The K-feldspar pIR<sub>50</sub>IR<sub>170</sub> ages, determined using the Minimum Age Model (MAM), indicate that during the early Holocene, glaciations have expanded by ∼800 m in length at ∼ 8 ka, and during the end of the Neoglacial period, they extended by ∼200 m in length at ∼ 1 ka. The strengthened ISM precipitation and northward movement of ISM boundary likely contributed to the glacial expansion in the early Holocene.

However, little work has been conducted on Holocene loess in the Arctic, despite the sensitivity of this region to climate changes. Aeolian silt/loess profiles in the ice-free region of western Greenland near Kangerlussuaq were sampled to develop a robust age framework using both luminescence and bulk organic matter radiocarbon dating. Radiocarbon ages generally show consistent age increases with depth but are likely offset to younger ages due to sediment mixing in the upper 10–20 cm of the profiles. Quartz OSL signals exhibit insensitivity, while low-temperature infrared stimulated luminescence performed at 50 °C (IR<sub>50</sub>) and the post-IR IRSL at 180 °C (pIRIR<sub>180</sub>) signals of polymineral fine grain revealed a consistent natural inherited dose of approximately 5 Gy for pIRIR<sub>180</sub> and an unbleachable residual of around 2 Gy for IR<sub>50</sub>, with substantial fading rates in the latter. This led to a notable age overestimation when compared with bulk organic matter radiocarbon ages. To develop an appropriate dating approach, we evaluated the differential bleaching rates of feldspar IR<sub>50</sub> and pIRIR<sub>180</sub> signals, and corrected for modern inherited doses. Radiocarbon ages measured on the bulk organic carbon oxidised at 400 °C (LT <sup>14</sup>C) increased very consistently with depth, allowing calculation of accumulation rates.

(2022) on several quartz samples from the Plio-Pleistocene to Holocene aeolian coastal dune deposits of the Wilderness-Knysna area (South Africa) that were previously dated by optically stimulated luminescence (OSL). Here, we extend this first ESR-OSL comparison with five additional optically-bleached quartz samples. We used the Multiple Aliquot Additive Dose (MAAD) method to specifically (i) evaluate the influence of the irradiation dose steps on the determination of low D<sub>e</sub> values (&lt;100 Gy) and (ii) obtain finite ESR ages for older samples that sometimes show saturated OSL signals. Following the Multiple Centre ESR dating approach, the Aluminium (Al) and Titanium (Ti) signals (Ti–H and Ti–Li–H, the latter resulting from a mixture of Ti centres) were systematically measured in all samples, and resulting D<sub>e</sub> values and age estimates were compared with the corresponding OSL data. Our results show that for young samples (&lt;50 ka) showing D<sub>e</sub> values of a few tens of Grays (Gy), the use of smaller irradiation steps spaced by &lt; 100 Gy has a noticeable impact on the MAAD dose evaluation from the Ti centres, usually leading to D<sub>e</sub> results closer to the expected values (for 2/3 samples). However, this also makes the ESR measurements somewhat more challenging, with higher experimental uncertainties, lower measurement repeatability and lower goodness-of-fit resulting from the relatively weak Ti ESR intensities, ultimately impacting the robustness of the ESR data collected. In this sense, our study illustrates the limitations of the ESR method to detect very low dose irradiation values &lt; 30 Gy with our experimental conditions (i.e., using MAAD procedure, a standard resonator and a measurement temperature of ∼90 K). On the contrary, it also highlights the greater potential of the Ti–H signal to date Late Pleistocene samples, confirming previous studies. Moreover, our results suggest that the transport and bleaching conditions of these aeolianite deposits may not be ideal for the reset of the radiation-induced Al and Ti ESR signals, which is consistent with the very few existing studies specifically focused on this type of samples, but contrasts with other previous dating applications centered on fluvial environments. Finally, we also provide additional chronological constraints to the Landward barrier complex and Coversands deposits, two of the oldest Plio-Quaternary formations in the Wilderness-Knysna area.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54516,"journal":{"name":"Quaternary Geochronology","volume":"83 ","pages":"Article 101580"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141583211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Single grain (SG) luminescence dating has successfully identified processes in the ECZ. However, SG luminescence dating of Atacama Desert feldspars is challenging and time consuming since only a small fraction of grains emits sufficient luminescence and their potassium (K) contents, needed for internal dose rate calculations, are highly variable. Here we present an adaption of the standardised growth curve (SGC) method adjusted to the conditions of Atacama Desert sediments and a correlation of single-grain geochemistry and luminescence properties.</p><p>To evaluate if SGCs are suitable for our study site and to determine the influence of the K-content on our luminescence age calculations, we used a set of five samples from the Atacama Desert and five chemically and structurally different feldspar sediment extracts from various geological origins worldwide. We performed a dose recovery test (DRT) using a post-infrared infrared stimulated luminescence (pIRIR) protocol and measured nine major element concentrations, including K, on a single grain level using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The DRT dataset was then used to test the application of SGCs. The accuracy of Atacama feldspar pIRIR measurements fitted onto SGCs frequently suffers from odd values in single measurement cycles, since the SGC approach developed for SG feldspar luminescence (Li et al., 2015b) uses one L<sub>x</sub>/T<sub>x</sub> measurement to project the L<sub>n</sub>/T<sub>n</sub> values onto a SGC. We investigate the influence of calculating a synthetic regenerative signal (sR) for SGC fitting, to reduce the effect of those odd values on individual grain measurements.

The research is conducted through experimental exposure to natural sunlight of two natural samples. The degree of zeroing is monitored over exposure times up to 100 min and related to the recuperation values obtained on the same grains from the standard pIRIR sequence. We find a positive correlation between recuperation doses of grains and their residual doses, which suggests that recuperation provides a proxy for grain bleachability. In addition, we combine our dataset of bleachability with information on the difference between IRSL<sub>50</sub> and pIRIR<sub>175</sub> equivalent doses determined on the same grain (D<sub>e</sub> ratio), which allows us to identify grains for which light exposure was too limited to reset both signals. The results demonstrate that prior inheritance, light exposure, and grain bleachability all may impact the residual dose of grains, resulting in overdispersion in equivalent dose distributions. Combining the assessment of bleachability with the information on the D<sub>e</sub> ratio can support the identification of best-bleached grains in a natural sample.

We reconstructed the lake level variations of a non-glacier-fed lake, Longjue Co, on the NWTP, using optical dating of paleo-shorelines. The optically stimulated luminescence signals of quartz grains were unsuitable for dating due to high contributions of the medium component, and thus the post-infrared infrared stimulated luminescence signals (pIR<sub>50</sub>IR<sub>170</sub>, pIR<sub>50</sub>IR<sub>225</sub>) of K-feldspar single grains were used. Internal checks including dose recovery tests, residual dose tests, and anomalous fading tests showed that the pIR<sub>50</sub>IR<sub>170</sub> signal was suitable for paleo-shoreline dating in Longjue Co.

We also examined the dependence of the K-feldspar equivalent dose (D<sub>e</sub>) on grain brightness and explored the possible mechanisms, and the brightest grains were then used for D<sub>e</sub> calculations. The results show that Longjue Co reached its maximum Holocene level (+34 m) during the early Holocene (10.06 ± 1.39 ka), and then after ∼5 ka it commenced a shrinking trend, punctuated by two rapid lake level decreases. Reference to independent paleoclimate records suggests that the Holocene lake level variations of Longjue Co and the regional hydroclimate were mainly controlled by the Indian summer monsoon.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54516,"journal":{"name":"Quaternary Geochronology","volume":"83 ","pages":"Article 101583"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141486898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Quartz OSL natural sensitization is thought to be mainly controlled by the formation conditions of the source bedrock and surface processes occurring mainly in sediment source areas. Thus, quartz OSL sensitivity can be linked to distinct sediment source regions, based on their tectonic setting and erosion conditions. In this way, changes in quartz OSL sensitivity within siliciclastic successions would track variations in sediment provenance. So far, few works evaluated how the OSL sensitivity of quartz sand grains varies in sedimentary successions that experienced long-term cycles of deep burial, exhumation, and erosion. Therefore, this work aims to characterize the sensitivity of the fast OSL component of quartz sand grains retrieved from the Cenozoic sedimentary rocks of the Northern Andes basins and assess its spatiotemporal changes. We found that quartz grains with the lowest OSL sensitivity are sourced by crystalline and volcanic rocks related to the Andean Continental Arc emplaced in the Colombian Central Cordillera, reflecting the onset of denudation in orogenic sources during the Paleocene. Subsequently, increasing trends in OSL sensitivity are related to the sedimentary recycling during the Andean orogeny, reaching maximum values as a result of the progressive unroofing of Cretaceous rocks in the Colombian Eastern Cordillera, originally sourced from the low-relief Amazon Craton. Changes in quartz OSL sensitivity measured in the Cenozoic sedimentary basin-fill sequences of the Northern Andes vary according to the shifts in sediment provenance related to the orogenic construction and sediment recycling of the Andean range.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54516,"journal":{"name":"Quaternary Geochronology","volume":"83 ","pages":"Article 101581"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141539947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
