My research is centered around the improved luminescence dating of quaternary deposits adjacent to Lake Michigan in northern Indiana and Illinois. Specifically, the use of Bayesian methods to establish precision quartz BOSL dates and the comparison of those dates with K-spar IRSL/PIRSL dates to test regional IRSL applicability.
