Quaternary Geochronology is a peer-reviewed scientific journal addressing methods and results in the dating of samples from the Quaternary Period.
The journal's scope covers the principles of geochronological methods, their analytical procedures, and instrumentation, such as Luminescence dating,[1] Tephrochronology,[2] or Surface exposure dating.[3] To that end, the journal is a platform for new and groundbreaking applications targeting the timing of events and processes in the Quaternary Period.
The journal was launched by Rainer Grün in 2006[4] as a stand-alone journal to cover discovery in the field Quaternary Geochronology as research discipline. Before, articles from that field were published as a subsection in the journal Quaternary Science Reviews.
