Development of a mid-Holocene estuarine basin, Rhine-Meuse mouth area, offshore The Netherlands

A proper understanding of coastal development during periods of rapid sea-level rise is a prerequisite for the prediction of future coastal response to the expected acceleration in sea-level rise. However, the development of back-barrier basins, especially in river-mouth areas, during such periods is still not well understood. Here we show the...

Diatoms (Bacillariophyceae) and dinoflagellate cysts (dinophyceae) from Rookery Bay, Florida, U.S.A

This paper is a report, on the diatoms and dinoflagellate cysts identified in a sediment core and a water sample recovered from Rookery Bay, a subtropical estuarine system located on the west coast of Florida. Eighty-eight diatom taxa representing 48 genera, many of which have been rarely observed, and 14 dinoflagellate cyst genera with 20 taxa...
