Temporal variation of natural grain TL signal
Natural residual TL signal ~ Solar exposure ~ Sediment transport 1. Travelling duration 2. Moving distance 3. Source identification
Nearshore Sediment Movement
Time Luminescence signal Initial TL Initial OSL bleaching (short time) Sand buried under the ground (long period) Deposition TL OSL Erosion Nearshore Sediment transport Laboratory Measurement Natural residual TL Sunlight Bleaching Luminescence signal decrease No light exposure Natural irradiation Signal accumulation Fast stage Slow stage
Sand grain emits light (luminescence) when exposed to light (OSL: Optically Stimulated Luminescence) or heat (TL: Thermo Luminescence). Intensity of the luminescence depends on how long the grain was buried under the ground and how long it has been exposed to the sunlight.
Clear peak around Kalu river > sand supply from the land Gradual decay toward north > Northward transport No major peak in the north of Nigombo > No major sand supply from land
Small peak at the Kelani River mouth > relatively small sand supply from land
