Data Release for Luminescence: Luminescence data for Natural Trap Cave, Wyoming

The following report summarizes the dating results from the Natural Trap Cave 2018-2019 dating project. Within this report, we detail the methodology used by the USGS Luminescence Geochronology Laboratory to obtain ages including sample preparation methods, luminescence measurement, equivalent dose determination, and dating-related calculations. We recommend that this report be included as the supplementary material for any publication(s) that use the ages within this report. This version supersedes all previous age estimates and reports.
