DRAC: Dose Rate and Age Calculator for trapped charge dating
TL;DR: The Dose Rate and Age Calculator (DRAC) as discussed by the authors is an open access web-based program which enables rapid and accurate calculation of the environmental radiation dose rate (http://www.aber.ac.uk/alrl/drac ).
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluvial landscapes of the Harappan civilization
Liviu Giosan,Peter D. Clift,Mark G. Macklin,Dorian Q. Fuller,Stefan Constantinescu,Julie A. Durcan,Thomas Stevens,Geoffrey A. T. Duller,Ali R. Tabrez,Kavita Gangal,Ronojoy Adhikari,Anwar Alizai,Florin Filip,Sam VanLaningham,James P. M. Syvitski +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, morphologic and chronologic evidence indicates that fluvial landscapes in Harappan territory became remarkably stable during the late Holocene as aridification intensified in the region after approximately 5,000 BP.
Journal ArticleDOI
The fast ratio: A rapid measure for testing the dominance of the fast component in the initial OSL signal from quartz
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an objective measure (termed the fast ratio) for testing the dominance of the fast component in the initial part of a quartz optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) signal.
Journal ArticleDOI
U-Pb zircon dating evidence for a Pleistocene Sarasvati River and capture of the Yamuna River
Peter D. Clift,Andrew Carter,Liviu Giosan,Julie A. Durcan,Geoffrey A. T. Duller,Mark G. Macklin,Anwar Alizai,Ali R. Tabrez,Mohammed Danish,Sam VanLaningham,Dorian Q. Fuller +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used U-Pb dating of zircon sand grains to constrain their provenance through comparison with the established character of modern river sands, and found that these sand grains showed similarities both to the Beas River in the west and to the Yamuna and Sutlej Rivers in the east.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late Quaternary highstands at Lake Chilwa, Malawi: Frequency, timing and possible forcing mechanisms in the last 44 ka
David S.G. Thomas,David S.G. Thomas,Richard M. Bailey,Paul A. Shaw,Julie A. Durcan,Joy S. Singarayer +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the Lake Chilwa, southern Malawi, a shallow water body covering 600 km2 of a basin of 7500 km2, for their record of late Quaternary highstands.
