Abstract

A new method for the continuous scanning of a sedimentary core is described. The latest advances in the use of infrared stimulated luminescence enable the monitoring of down core variations to a precision of better than 1.0 mm and a resolution of approximately 2.5 mm. We present results from a glacio-lacustrine core from Spitsbergen showing significant signal variations which correlate with the laminae structure.
