High-resolution pOSL chronologies (red line) for WES (A) and GFF (B). Grey lines represent age-depth trends when using a limited number of age samples, as would be the case with conventional dating. Ages for constructing these lines were sampled with constant depth intervals from the pOSL age depth curve. (C, D) High-resolution deposition rates derived from pOSL-chronologies (red line) versus average rates for historic periods (GFF, cf35) or stratigraphic units (WES) (black line). The plow layer is left out of the rate calculations. All uncertainties are 1-sigma errors.
