A multiproxy approach to address signals of MIS 2 climate fluctuations using loess–palaeosol sequences along a slope transect at Langenlois (lower Austria)
This study examines loess–palaeosol sequences (LPS) from three closely situated sites along a slope transect in Langenlois (lower Austria), focusing on palaeoenvironmental variability during Marine Isotope Stage 2 (MIS 2). One objective is to disentangle the pedosedimentary impact of local slope processes from that of regional or global climate changes to evaluate the potential of the profiles for regional environmental reconstructions. By integr…
Massive boulders shifted along the coast of Guantánamo, Cuba, during Hurricane Matthew (2016)
Hurricane Matthew struck the province of Guantánamo in southeastern Cuba in 2016 by making landfall as the first and only hurricane reaching category 4 in documented history. We surveyed transport path, distance and mode of coastal boulder deposits (CBD) after the event at three coastal sites and compared them with the pre-Matthew boulderscape, which reflects the effects of extreme-wave events on millennial time scales. The application of a dimen…
Geomorphic and sedimentary impact on beaches of Eastern Visayas (Philippines) after Typhoon Haiyan in 2013 - short-term recovery and post-depositional changes
Tropical cyclones and storm surges are a major threat to coastal communities of the Philippines. On 08th November 2013, category 5 Typhoon Haiyan (local name: Yolanda) made landfall on the islands of Eastern Visayas and caused more than 6000 casualties and severe damage to infrastructure and habitats. To assess the geomorphic impact of one of the strongest tropical cyclones on record, three post-typhoon surveys were conducted in 2014, 2015 and 20…
Towards integrated flood management
Despite the rising global flood risk, the impacts of flooding remain systematically underestimated, leading to significant consequences for particularly vulnerable river deltas. Most studies focus either on single hazards or social vulnerability while overlooking the interconnected dynamics of deltaic social-ecological systems. In response to the first priority of the Sendai Framework, which calls for an understanding of disaster risk in all its …
Palaeoenvironmental changes and human-environment interactions in the surroundings of La Silla del Papa, SW Spain
The surroundings of the Strait of Gibraltar in southern Iberia are well known as a crossroads for population movements, cultural exchange and trade from Late Prehistory to Modern Times. However, questions remain about how this historical development has impacted the environment. The settlement of La Silla del Papa, an important hillfort located in the Sierra de la Plata in southern Andalusia (Cádiz), and its territory represent an ideal location …
Evaluating flood hazards in data-sparse coastal lowlands
Coastal lowlands and river deltas worldwide are increasingly exposed to coastal, pluvial and fluvial flooding as well as relative sea-level rise (RSLR). However, information about both single and multiple flood-type hazards, their potential impact and the characteristics of areas, population and assets at risk is often still limited as high-quality data either does not exist or is not accessible. This often constitutes a main barrier for generati…
Holocene coastal evolution and environmental changes in the lower Río Guadiaro valley, with particular focus on the Bronze to Iron Age harbour ‘Montilla’ of Los Castillejos de Alcorrín (Málaga, Andalu…
Phoenicians were the first to systematically develop the area surrounding the Strait of Gibraltar at the end of the 9th century B.C. Following pioneering studies in the Río Guadiaro estuary (Málaga/Cádiz) in the 1980s, a German‐Spanish cooperation project focussed on the role of indigenous people in the Phoenician colonisation trading networks at Los Castillejos de Alcorrín (Manilva, Málaga), one of the most important Early Iron Age settlements i…
Dating dry-stone walls with rock surface luminescence
Dating the construction of dry-stone walls is challenging since such structures are typically built without any mortar that can be used for dating. Rock surface luminescence dating is a developing dating method that could advance chronological insights from structures constructed using dry-stone techniques. This study explores rock surface luminescence dating by targeting dry-stone walls from two enclosure complexes and a hut located in the pasto…
Late Holocene evolution of São Tomé cape (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)
Mid‐ to late Holocene environmental changes and human‐environment interactions in the surroundings of La Silla del Papa, SW Spain
In southern Iberia, the surroundings of the Strait of Gibraltar are known as a crossroad for population movements, cultural exchanges, and trade from Late Prehistory to modern times. However, questions remain about the impact of this historical development on the environment. The settlement of La Silla del Papa, an important hillfort in southern Andalusia (Cádiz), was occupied during the entire Iron Age, replaced by the coastal town Baelo Claudia…
Testing the potential of K-feldspar pIR-IRSL and quartz ESR for dating coastal alluvial fan complexes in arid environments
The Purpose and Age of Underwater Walls in the Bay of Elaia of Western Turkey
Pergamum (modern: Bergama) was operating an important harbour used by military forces and merchants at the city of Elaia during Hellenistic and Roman Imperial times. Harbour‐related facilities such as warehouses, breakwaters and wharfs document the importance of this harbour site not only for the Pergamenians. This paper focuses on the purpose and age of six submerged wall structures situated approximately 1 km south of the ancient closed harbour…
Potential predecessors of the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami - sedimentary evidence of extreme wave events at Ban Bang Sak, SW Thailand
Holocene sea levels along the Andaman Sea coast of Thailand
For the Malay-Thai Peninsula several sea-level curves for the younger Holocene, based on field evidence as well as on hydro-isostatic modelling of a far-field site, have been published. The general assumption is a rapid rise to a mid-Holocene maximum up to +5 m above present sea level, followed by a constant or oscillating regression. However, from the Andaman Sea coast of Thailand, which was affected by the 2004 tsunami, only isolated observatio…
