Postglacial relative sea-level histories along the eastern Canadian coastline
We have assembled a database of Relative Sea Level (RSL) data points from the eastern
coast of Canada from Hudson Bay to the border with the USA. In compiling this database we …

Benthic foraminifera and pore water carbonate chemistry on a tidal flat and salt marsh at Ria Formosa, Algarve, Portugal
J Schoenfeld, I Mendes - Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2022 - Elsevier
Benthic foraminifera showed a vertical zonation in tidally influenced salt marshes, which has
been used for sea level reconstructions. Growing evidence suggested that freshwater influx …

Enough is enough, or more is more? Testing the influence of foraminiferal count size on reconstructions of paleo-marsh elevation
Salt-marsh foraminifera are sea-level proxies used to quantitatively reconstruct Holocene
paleo-marsh elevations (PME) and subsequently relative sea level (RSL). The reliability of …

Low‐salinity transitions drive abrupt microbial response to sea‐level change
A Whittle, RL Barnett, DJ Charman… - Ecology …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
The salinisation of many coastal ecosystems is underway and is expected to continue into
the future because of sea‐level rise and storm intensification brought about by the changing …

Differences in coastal subsidence in southern Oregon (USA) during at least six prehistoric megathrust earthquakes
Stratigraphic, sedimentologic (including CT 3D X-ray tomography scans), foraminiferal, and
radiocarbon analyses show that at least six of seven abrupt peat-to-mud contacts in cores …

Salt-marsh testate amoebae as precise and widespread indicators of sea-level change
Salt-marsh sediments are routinely used to reconstruct sea-level changes over past
millennia. These reconstructions bridge an important gap between geological and …

Does elevation matter? Living foraminiferal distribution in a hyper tidal salt marsh (Canche Estuary, Northern France)
F Francescangeli, VMP Bouchet, A Trentesaux… - Estuarine, Coastal and …, 2017 - Elsevier
In the present study we investigate the ecology and distribution of living benthic foraminifera
to test the effect of hyper tidal exposure and their suitability as sea level indicators. Within a …
