A post-IR IRSL chronology and dust mass accumulation rates of the Nosak loess-palaeosol sequence in northeastern Serbia
(Boreas, 2020)In the Middle Danube Basin, Quaternary deposits are widely distributed in the Vojvodina region where they cover about 95% of the area. Major research during the last two decades has been focused on loess deposits in the ... -
Direct and indirect luminescence dating of tephra: A review
(Journal of Quaternary Science, 2019)In Quaternary studies, tephras are widely used as marker horizons to correlate geological deposits. Therefore, accurate and precise dating is crucial. Among radiometric dating techniques, luminescence dating has the potential ... -
GIS-based analysis of a geotechnical-geological 3D model of periglacial Quaternary rocks in the southern Leine valley, Lower Saxony
(2014)Geometric 3D models are a very efficient tool to visualize geological units and structural features that have been presented before just in two dimensions on maps or cross-sections. Most of the information of 3D models ... -
New results concerning the pedo‐ and chronostratigraphy of the loess–palaeosol sequence Attenfeld (Bavaria, Germany) derived from a multi‐methodological approach
(Journal of Quaternary Science, 2021-03-18)Loess–palaeosol sequences (LPS) represent important records of palaeoenvironmental dynamics throughout the Quaternary. During the Pleistocene's dry and cold phases, the Danube's riverbed was one of the major sources for ... -
Nonmarine Ostracoda as proxies in (geo‐)archaeology — A review
(Geoarchaeology, 2022-05-03)Ostracods as bioindicators are extremely useful for reconstructing palaeoenvironment and palaeoclimate and can also indicate the provenance of sediments and materials, for example, in studies on ancient commercial networks. ... -
Rock magnetics of carbonate systems–investigating palaeodune archives on Fuerteventura (Canary Islands)
(Journal of Quaternary Science, 2020)The mineral magnetic properties of Pleistocene aeolian dune sands from the island of Fuerteventura (Canary Islands, Spain) were studied in order to reconstruct the palaeoenvironmental evolution of Pleistocene climates ...
