Figure 3.2. Demonstration <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> basics <strong>of</strong> luminescence dating. The event being dated is <strong>the</strong><br />

setting to zero <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> luminescence signal that was acquired at some point in <strong>the</strong> past. The<br />

zeroing <strong>of</strong> this signal occurs through exposure to sunlight during erosion, transport <strong>and</strong><br />

deposition. Once <strong>the</strong> material is buried, <strong>the</strong> signal begins to build again. (Source: Lepper., K.<br />
