Geochronology of the Batagay Megaslump in East Siberia: B19-LU luminescence dating data sets and R scripts

To improve the geochronology of the ancient permafrost deposits exposed in the headwall of the Batagay Megaslump in East Siberia (67.58°N, 134.77°E), we estimated the age of frozen sediments with luminescence dating and supplemented the results with other dating approaches and stratigraphical interpretation. Important note: There is a new version of this repository, which contains the specific paleodose calculations, environmental dose rates and sample ages published in Opel et al., see the reference below.
