The interplay of bioturbation, soil production and long‐term erosion–deposition in soil and landscape co‐evolution is poorly understood. Single‐grain post‐infrared infrared stimulated luminescence (post‐IR IRSL) measurements on sand‐sized grains of feldspar from the soil matrix can provide direct in...
