FORAMINIFERAL COMMUNITY DYNAMICS OF THE CHESAPEAKE GROUP, CALVERT CLIFFS, MARYLAND, USA
(East Carolina University, 8/5/2020)The long-term impact of climate and sea-level change on marine communities can be documented using the fossil record of well-studied, and widely distributed organisms such as benthic foraminifera. The Calvert and Choptank ... -
Holocene Paleoenvironmental Reconstruction of Depositional Environments on the Sunda Shelf, Southwest South China Sea, using a Multidisciplinary Approach
(East Carolina University, 2018-08-22)The last glacial maximum, ca. 21,000 years ago, caused a fall in eustatic sea level of ca. 120 m below present. The low-gradient, shallow Sunda Shelf, Southeast Asia was subaerially exposed during this sea-level lowstand ... -
HOLOCENE PALEOENVIRONMENTAL RECONSTRUCTION OF THE SUNDA SHELF, OFF NORTHEASTERN PENINSULAR MALAYSIA
(East Carolina University, 2017-05-03)In order to understand Holocene paleoenvironmental evolution of the western Sunda Shelf (southern South China Sea), two gravity cores TER15-GC10A and TER15-GC9A were collected (2015) 33 and 37 km offshore of Kuala Terengganu ... -
Holocene Sedimentary Record from the Sunda Shelf off Peninsular Malaysia: Insights from Elemental, Isotopic and Bulk Sediment Magnetic Susceptibility Analyses
(East Carolina University, 2016-04-19)Post-Last Glacial Maximum (since ca. 20,000 cal yr BP) sediments of the Sunda Shelf (southern South China Sea) are generally thin, with the exception of incised valleys where thicker accumulations tend to occur. These ...
