Grain size and luminescence data from the Orog Nuur Basin (Mongolia)

Samples were taken in order to gain a comprehensive sedimentological and geochronological overview over late Quaternary sediment cascades and respective archives. Grain size measurements were conducted in Aachen using a Beckmann Coulter Laser Particle Sizer.

OSL data were obtained in the Luminescence lab of Cologne University. Samples were classified into 7 sediment archives according to the field description and grain size analysis (fluvial, beach ridge, lacustrine, littoral sand, dune sand, basin silty sands, and mountain silt). The grain size statistics is presented in the .xlsx-table according to this classification.
