Abstract The Late Pleistocene-early Holocene faunal turnover in South America was
characterized by the extinction of all mammals with body mass> 300 kg and several smaller …

The aim of this work was to analyze the sedimentary record of the coastal plain of Pelotas
Basin, placing it in the context of temporal and spatial scales, and proposing a stratigraphic …

This paper presents the geological and morphological evolution of the prograded Cassino
barrier during the middle and late Holocene. A special focus is given on the presentation …

We reviewed historical data on surface sediment composition/distribution and
hydrodynamics of the Patos-Mirim lagoonal system, the largest coastal shallow limnological …

The Holocene barrier along the southern Brazilian coast is most likely the most continuous
barrier structure in the world. This coast is characterized by a Holocene barrier extending for …

This paper describes the evolution of a sector of the southern coastal plain of the Pelotas
Basin, southern Brazil, between the last Pleistocene sea-level lowstand and the Holocene …

In this paper, a reinterpretation of the older 14 C ages of the Pleistocene substrate of the
Holocene barrier-lagoon system of three coastal localities in southern Brazil is presented …

The evolution and behavior of coastal barriers are controlled by several allogenic and
autogenic factors. Some of these may be more deterministic than others. In this study, the …

This research aims to investigate shoreline variability at an undeveloped beach in southern
Brazil on interannual and millennial scales. The long-term coastal evolution was …

Coastal and estuarine ecosystems such as mangroves provide coastal protection services,
safeguarding coastal communities and economies. However, sea-level rise can affect …
