“…These palaeosols postdate periods of sand mobility. Late-Glacial sand movements were also confirmed by IRSL dating of two sand-dunes along the River Danube (from Kisoroszi and Dunavarsány) (Ujházy et al, 2003). The IRSL ages from these sections were without fading correction, so that any comparison with this study should be interpreted carefully.…”

“…An average a-value of 0.08 ± 0.02 (Wallinga et al, 2001) was used for age calculation. The cosmic dose rate was corrected for altitude and sediment thickness (Prescott and Hutton, 1994), assuming a water content of 15 ± 5% for all samples (Ujházy et al, 2003).…”

“…Organic materials from buried soils, which are intercalated within the sand dunes were investigated to estimate or bracket the age of aeolian sand activity. The first Infrared Stimulated Luminescence (IRSL) dating study of dune sands near the River Danube was carried out by Ujházy et al (2003). A Multiple Aliquot Additive Dose (MAAD) protocol was used for the IRSL dating approach, supplemented by radiocarbon dating of charcoals.…”

Earthquakes that trigger tsunamis are of great geological, ecological and socio-economic importance. The knowledge of the recurrence interval of these events will give information about the hazard for a region. Coastal sediments on the Andaman Islands located in the eastern Bay of Bengal were investigated to find evidence for palaeotsunamis and palaeoearthquakes. Fieldwork was conducted on Red Skin Island and North Cinque Island, south of South Andaman. Sediment material from event-layers was dated by optically stimulated luminescence and radiocarbon dating method. The results show evidence possibly for one earthquake at about 1,000 or 3,000 years before the present together with deposits from possible tsunamis and storms. The complex pattern of co-and postseismic uplift and subsidence of the Andaman Islands is reflected in the investigated sections and made it possible to reconstruct an event-history for the last 3,000 years.

“…The mapped elements have been related to core samples (Rónai, 1985;Vandenberghe et al, 2003;Gábris and Nagy, 2005), to the results of pollen analyses (Magyari, 2002;Vandenberghe et al, 2003) and to radiocarbon (Hertelendi et al, 1992;Sümegi and Hertelendi, 1998;Gábris and Nagy, 2005) and luminescence dates (Ujházy et al, 2003). These connections can be used to determine the precise date of the formation and the abandonment of the channels, but these data are not vital for the present work.…”
