Luminescence dating of buried cobble surfaces from sandy beach ridges: a case study from Denmark

Here we investigate the use of optically stimulated luminescence ( OSL ) for dating cobbles from the body of successive beach ridges and compare cobble surface‐derived ages to standard quartz OSL ages from sand. Between four and eight cobbles and sand samples (age control) were dated with the luminescence method, taken from the modern beach and from beach ridges on the south and north extremes of a prograding spit on the westernmost coast of...
