OSL dating results of fissure infillings associated with the 2010 Yushu Ms 7.1 earthquake

For each sample, the dataset includes sample ID, sampling depth, radionuclide concentrations (K, Th and U), water content, environmental dose rate (D), equivalent dose (De), and calculated OSL age.Potassium (K, %), thorium (Th, ppm), and uranium (U, ppm) concentrations were used to estimate the environmental dose rate.

Water content was measured for each sample and incorporated into dose rate calculations. The equivalent dose (De) was determined using the single-aliquot regenerative-dose (SAR) protocol, and OSL ages were calculated from the ratio of equivalent dose to environmental dose rate.All ages are reported with 1σ uncertainties.
