The southern coast of Brazil has been settled in different episodes between ca. 7.5 and 0.5
ka before the present by hunter-fisher-gatherers, shell mound builders of the pre-colonial …

Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is increasingly used for subsurface detection of structures
due to nondestructive characteristics. Use of the method for studies of coastal depositional …

Sand dunes are commonly regarded as a challenge to traditional photogrammetry due their
homogeneous texture and spectral response. In this work we present an evaluation of …

Through alteration of wave-generating atmospheric systems, global climate changes play a
fundamental role in regional wave climate. However, long-term wave-climate cycles and …

Quaternary sea level and climate changes can promote spatio-temporal shifts in the
morphology of coastal eolian depositional systems. A shift of depositional features such as …

The structure and origin of the Pleistocene (Marine Isotope Stage [MIS] 5) coastal Barrier III
in southern Brazil were investigated through analysis of lithofacies, numerical ages, and …

The development of optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating of sediments has led to
considerable advance in the geochronology of the Quaternary. OSL dating is a well …

This work analyzes the geological evolution of sedimentary deposits in the coastal aquifer of
Garopaba, south Brazil, using ground penetrating radar (GPR) and data from tubular wells …

Abstract Elongate, rock-framed Santa Catarina Island partly encloses a low-energy marine
embayment that communicates with the ocean via narrow, rock-bounded inlets with ebb and …

Grandes rios, como o São Francisco, são sistemas dinâmicos cuja evolução depende de
forçantes internos e externos, particularmente tectônica, nível do mar e clima. O São …
