Abstract

A review of the application of thermoluminescence (TL) methods for dating sediments is presented. After a brief description of the philosophy of this application, various methods currently in vogue for estimating the accumulated radiation dose in sediments are described. A brief survey of these results obtained for various sediment types is included so as to demonstrate the range and promise of the TL method for dating Quaternary sediments. Finally, future areas of research and as yet, unresolved problems are discussed.
