Quantitative estimates of land-level change during the giant AD 1700 Cascadia earthquake
along the Oregon coast are inferred from relative sea-level changes reconstructed from …

There is a known bias in C/N, δ13C and δ15N values of organic matter (OM) due to pre-
analysis acid treatment methods. We report here, for the first time, the results of a pre …

Distinguishing between natural and anthropogenic processes in sedimentary records from
estuaries with legacy pollutants is an essential task, as it provides baselines to predict future …

Stable carbon isotopes (δ13C) and the ratio of organic carbon to total nitrogen (C/N) are
able to differentiate sources of organic matter that accumulate in coastal depositional …

Background Salt marshes are major natural repositories of sequestered organic carbon with
high burial rates of organic matter, produced by highly productive native flora. Accumulated …

The 2011 Tōhoku-oki megathrust earthquake (Mw 9.0) generated a tsunami that reached
the Sendai coastal plain with flow heights of~ 2 to 11m above TP (Tokyo Peil). We examined …

Coastal mud belts, which lie parallel to the coast just seaward of the shoreface, are one of
the most important settings where shallow‐marine muddy deposits accumulate. However …

Bulk organic stable carbon isotope (δ 13 C) and accompanying bulk organic geochemical
measurements have been increasingly used as a relative sea-level (RSL) indicator over the …

River islands (Ait or Eyot) within the inner tidal Thames serve as unique recorders of current
and historical estuarine chemical pollution. Sediment cores from Chiswick Ait were …

We compared the use of δ13C values and C: N ratios from salt-marsh sediments to
reconstruct relative sea level (RSL) with an established approach using foraminifera …
