Abstract

Two types of poorly bleached sediment are differentiated and the applicability of various luminescence dating methods is assessed. The methods are applied to three fluvioglacial sediments from Scotland. It is shown that it is possible to detect sediments that contain a mixture of well bleached and unbleached grains using the single aliquot additive dose method or the analysis of the scatter in aultiple aliquot additive dose growth curve.
