Late Holocene evolution of a Mediterranean incised river flowing to the Atlantic
The role of climate, marine influence and sedimentation rates in late-Holocene estuarine evolution (SW Portugal)
Estuaries are sensitive to changes in global to regional sea level, to climate-driven variation in rainfall and to fluvial discharge. In this study, we use source and environmentally sensitive proxies together with radiocarbon dating to examine a 7-m-thick sedimentary record from the Sado estuary accumulated throughout the last 3.6 kyr. The lithofacies, geochemistry and diatom assemblages in the sediments accumulated between 3570 and 3240 cal. BP…
Holocene sea level and climate interactions on wet dune slack evolution in SW Portugal
We examine the Holocene environmental changes in a wet dune slack of the Portuguese coast, Poço do Barbarroxa de Baixo. Lithology, organic matter, biological proxies and high-resolution chronology provide estimations of sediment accumulation rates and changes in environmental conditions in relation to sea-level change and climate variability during the Holocene. Results show that the wet dune slack was formed 7.5 cal. ka BP, contemporaneous with …
Diatom responses to Holocene environmental changes in a small lake in northwest Spain
An early Holocene short climatic event in the northwest Iberian Peninsula inferred from pollen and diatoms
