Quaternary coastal morphology and sea-level changes—an introduction
Few things remain static in natural systems and perhaps no better illustrated than by changes in the level of the ocean surface with respect to the land over Quaternary timescales. The position of sea level (ultimate base level) and changes of sea level over geological timescales represent important controls in the evolution of coastal environments, and as an agent of profound geomorphological ...
متن کاملLate Quaternary sea-level and tectonic changes in northeast Fiji
The islands of northeast Fiji studied are all the emergent parts of the northern end of the Lau^Colville Ridge, a remnant island arc which has been rising for most of the Quaternary. Within the study area, investigations of coastal landforms (primarily emerged notches and shore platforms) and emerged coral reefs allow rates of tectonic movements to be calculated. The Vanuabalavu Island group is...
متن کاملLate Quaternary Eustatic Sea-Level Changes Along TheMalibu Coast, Los Angeles County, California
Late Quaternary relative sea-level changes along the Malibu coast can be deciphered by study of geomorphic features and marine and associated stream deposits. Evidence for such changes includes (a) stream downcutting in large valleys during low stands of sea level, (b) stream aggradation in the same valleys during high stands of sea level, and (c) marine shoreline angles whose altitudes coincid...
متن کاملReconstruction of Sea Level Changes using Magnetic Susceptibility Variations in Southeastern Caspian Sea
Magnetic susceptibility is one of the most important tools for monitoring the sediment composition during environmental studies. In this research, in order to reconstruct the Caspian Sea level changes, magnetic susceptibility variations were used during the studies of 5 sedimentary cores (K1, K3, K5, K7, N1), collected from bottom sediments of Gorgan Bay. Samples were analyzed for grain size, t...
متن کاملThe effect of the NAO on sea level and on mass changes in the Mediterranean Sea
[1] Sea level in the Mediterranean Sea over the period 1993–2011 is studied on the basis of altimetry, temperature, and salinity data and gravity measurements from Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) (2002–2010). An observed increase in sea level corresponds to a linear sea level trend of 3.0 0.5mm/yr dominated by the increase in the oceanic mass in the basin. The increase in sea le...
