Geomorphological and geoarchaeological studies from the lower Gulf region of southeastern Arabia are increasing our knowledge of hydrological, ecological, and aeolian changes during the Holocene. Preliminary analyses of sediment records from two palaeolakes in the United Arab Emirates are presented, highlighting the potential of these sediment sources for providing high‐resolution decadal studies of climate change and landscape evolution over the past 10,000 years. In order to study the society‐environment relationship in this marginal region, a framework of environmental change is being developed against which the archaeology of the region can be set
