We are using Gamma Spectrometer to measure the natural radiation of sediment sample. The samples are also contains
large proportion of moisture.
Dear Vijinder,
The answer of your question easily can be find in internet. Here I am attaching one of them with very basic and important information regarding TL and OSL dating and hope it will be useful to you.
With best wishes,
Habib.
In addition to the reading provided above, you can't go past Aitken (1998), and Prescott and Hutton (1994) for the effect of moisture content on cosmic dose rate.
