We apply the three-dimensional COupled Hydrodynamical Ecological model for REgioNal Shelf Seas (COHERENS) to compute water renewal time scales for Hervey Bay, a large coastal embayment situated off the central eastern coast of Australia. Water renewal time scales are not directly observable but are derived indirectly from computational studies. Improved knowledge of these time scales assists in...

The eastern Kendeng Hills (Java, Indonesia) expose a 1000 m thick series that is used as stratigraphic standard, representing the emergence of Java from sea. fluvial top rich in vertebrate fossils and yielded Mojokerto (Perning) hominin skullcap, which regarded earliest evidence Homo erectus on Java, with age estimates ranging between 1.9 1.49 Ma. commonly an uninterrupted record coastal progra...

The outlet glaciers to the embayment of the Larsen-B Ice Shelf started to accelerate soon after the ice shelf disintegrated in March 2002. We analyse high resolution radar images of the TerraSAR-X satellite, launched in June 2007, to map the motion of outlet glaciers in detail. The frontal velocities are used to estimate the calving fluxes for 2008/2009. As reference for pre-collapse conditions...

Overview: Coastal embayments throughout the State of Massachusetts (and along the U.S. eastern seaboard) are becoming nutrient enriched. The nutrients are primarily related to changes in watershed land-use associated with increasing population within the coastal zone over the past half century. Many of Massachusetts' embayments have nutrient levels that are approaching or are currently over the...

Dezful embayment contains several potential source rocks deposited in tectonically active environments. Existence of various source rocks with different geological ages makes this area one of the most prolific regions throughout the Middle East. The Pabdeh Formation (Lower Paleocene-Eocene), the Gurpi Formation (Santonian-Masstrichtian), the Kazhdumi Formation (Albian) and the Gadvan Formation ...

Channel-fill sediments located in shallow-water off the south shore of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, provide a record of the late-Pleistocene and Holocene geological evolution in a post-glacial setting. Though conventionally difficult to sample adequately and anticipated to have low preservation potential, channel-fill sequences record in some detail differing relative sea-level and sedimentation pr...

A novel 3-dimensional numerical model resolving dynamic interactions between environmental drivers and benthic fauna was applied to an idealized domain as analogous typical tidal embayments. The aim is derive insights into the role of in guiding long-term (decadal centennial) coastal morphological evolution at a system scale. Three major functions by on sediment dynamics, namely bio-destabiliza...

Abstract The Krems Embayment contains the westernmost fully marine depositional environments of Karpatian and Bade-nian transgressions in Central Paratethys. Four drill cores were investigated to analyse bio- lithostratigraphic, tectonic relations. core sections cover Laa Formation (bio-zones M4, NN4) Badenian Gaindorf (M5b-M6, NN4-NN5). Important biostratigraphic indicators identified are Prae...
