Wallinga, J. (author), Bos, I.J. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)We test the applicability of quartz optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating on clastic lake sediments to investigate whether this dating method can be applied to study the timing and rate of deposition in Holocene fluvio-deltaic lakes. Our study concerns the filling of a lake by the Angstel-Vecht system, part of the Rhine delta in the...article 2010

(author), Wagner-Cremer, F. (author), Reichart, G.J. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)A suite of organic geochemical, micropaleontological and palynological proxies was applied to sediments from Southwest Florida, to study the Holocene environmental changes associated with sea-level rise.

Berg, S. (author), Wagner, B. (author), Cremer, H. (author), Leng, M.J. (author), Melles, M. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)The Rauer Group is an archipelago in Prydz Bay, East Antarctica. The ice-free islands and the surrounding shallow marine areas provide valuable archives for the reconstruction of the late Pleistocene and Holocene environmental and climatic history of the region. Two sediment records from two marine inlets of Rauer Group have been studied for...article 2010

(author)The low-lying part of The Netherlands is very vulnerable in terms of surface subsidence due to peat oxidation and peat/clay compaction. To gain knowledge about this kind of subsidence and the factors driving it, a study was performed in which as many surface elevation data were collected as possible and processed to obtain a subsidence map....conference paper 2010

(author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)We present a case study of the development of Sacrower See, a stratified, eutrophic lake in northeastern Germany, over the past 13,000 years. Total epilimnetic phosphorus (TP) concentrations were reconstructed quantitatively using a diatom-TP transfer function. Fossil chironomid assemblages were used to support the trophic reconstruction and...article 2009

Eisma, D. (author), Mook, W.G. (author), Laban, C. (author)Salinity, temperature and age have been determined for Cardium edule shells, collected in the Southern Bight of the North Sea, from their isotopic composition. The results indicate that before c.8100 BP(probably between.10,000 and 8000 BP) a brackish-water tidal-flat area existed in the present Deep Water Channel (chlorinity c.13). Between c...bookPart 2009

(author), Buckley, M. (author), Collins, M. (author), Gittenberger, E. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)Although the recent history of human colonisation and impact on Mauritius is well documented, virtually no records of the pre-human native ecosystem exist, making it difficult to assess the magnitude of the changes brought about by human settlement. Here, we describe a 4000-year-old fossil bed at Mare aux Songes (MAS) in south-eastern Mauritius...article 2009

(author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)Two sediment cores of 70 and 252 cm length were recovered from Hjort Sø, a small lake on Store Koldewey, Northeast Greenland, and studied with a multidisciplinary approach in order to reconstruct the local environmental history and to test the relevance of proxies for paleoenvironmental information. The basal sediments from the longer core are...article 2008

(author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)Lateglacial environments at Hijkermeer, northwest Netherlands, were reconstructed by means of chironomid, diatom and pollen analyses. Diatom assemblages indicate that Hijkermeer was a shallow, oligo- to mesotrophic lake during this period. Pollen assemblages reflect the typical northwest European Lateglacial vegetation development and provide an...article 2007

(author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)We report a centennial-scale warming event between 8600 and 8400 cal BP from Amery Oasis, East Antarctica, that is documented by the geochemical record in a lacustrine sediment sequence. The organic carbon content, the C/S ratio, and the sedimentation rate in this core have distinctly elevated values around 8500 y ago reflecting relatively warm...article 2007

TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author), Donselaar, M.E. (author), Geel, C.R. (author)The size, shape and spatial position of lithofacies types (or facies architecture) in a tidal estuarine basin are complex and therefore difficult to model. The tidal currents in the basin concentrate sand-sized sediment in a branching pattern of tidal channels and fringing tidal flats. Away from the sandy tidal flats the sediment gradually...article 2007

Kiden, P. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)This paper gives an overview of the evolution of the Lower River schelde in Belgium and the southwestern Netherlands, with special reference to recent research results. During the Lateglacial the Scheldt in The Netherlands occupies a deeply incised palaeovalley which runs in a northerly direction. In the course of the Holocene sea-level rise,...article 2006

(author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)Recently obtained high-resolution seismic records, collected offshore the western Netherlands in a kilometer-size grid across the lower shoreface and inner shelf, suggest the presence of a dense, previously unknown network of tidal-channel fills in the shallow subsurface of the North Sea. Seven channel fills constituting this network were...article 2005

(author)The apparent electrical conductivity of the subsurface along the Dutch coast between 'Wassenaarse Slag' (beach post 92.250) and north of Noordwijk aan Zee (beach post 77.750) reflects the spatial distribution of Holocene coastal deposits. Using a Geonics EM-34 a threefold division based on the mean electrical conductivity could be made in the...article 2004

Nederlands Instituut voor Toegepaste Geowetenschappen TNO (author), Beets, D.J. (author), van der Spek, A.J.F. (author)Flooding of the southern part of the North Sea occurred between 9000 and 8000 BP, when the rate of relative sea-level rise was on the order of 0.7 cm per year for the Dover Strait Region and 1.6 cm per year for the area north of the Frisian Islands, forcing the shoreline to recede rapidly. When relative sea-level rise decelerated after 7000 BP...article 2000
