Luminescence Dating in the Natural Sciences

These principles will be further illustrated through case studies that examine both the potential and the limitations of luminescence dating.
Passionate in geologically exciting terrains and dark laboratories, Michel Lamothe has completed a PhD in geology at Western Ontario on the history of glaciation in Québec, Canada. He was among the first wave of luminescence dating “scholars trained in Simon Fraser University under the guidance of Dave Huntley. The author has developed a unique expertise in the dating of a large range of geological and archaeological depositional environments exposed on several continents, particularly America, Africa and Europe. The establishment of his luminescence dating laboratory in 1990 at Université du Québec à Montréal has permitted the creation of an international pole of excellence in the dating of feldspar minerals. The author has dedicated most of his research on the development of an optical dating technique based on feldspar while pursuing active field-based investigations in glacial and marine settings. Michel Lamothe teaches geomorphology and geochronology at UQAM. He enjoys family life in Montréal and walks his poodle in Parc Lafontaine.
