Have recently proposed a new measurement procedure (MET-pIRIR) for luminescence dating using feldspar; they argue that this procedure reduces anomalous fading to negligible levels, and that it is a significant improvement over existing protocols (pIRIR290). Here we compare the measured equivalent doses using the MET-pIRIR procedure and the pIRIR290 protocol from nine sand-sized feldspar samples from a variety of geographical locations.
We conclude that there is good agreement in the performance of the two methods.
