“…Noticeably, there has been more and more recognition that radiocarbon dating of materials from late Pleistocene sediments (e.g., Briant and Bateman, 2009;Simms et al, 2009; or archaeological sites (e.g., Higham et al, 2009) is challenging. However, there are still many radiocarbon dates ranging from 30 to 40 cal ka BP that were obtained from conventional AAA pretreatment and then used for paleoclimatic interpretation (e.g., Wang et al, 2011) or in some key archeological sites, as suggested by Higham et al (2009), and these results yielded analytical errors, suggesting that they had relatively small uncertainties.…”

“…However, the presence of older brackish/lagoonal marine fauna (Cerastoderma) at Oyster Pit older than 40 ky may well indicate that a depression existed already at that time, thus perhaps moving back the time of karstification to MIS4. The area would have been inundated during the relative high-stand MIS3 (Simms et al, 2009), re-exposed during the MIS2 sea-level drop, and definitely submerged again at 12 ky BP.…”

The south Adriatic shelf offshore of the predominently carbonate Apulian coast is characterized by a peculiar rough topography interpreted as relic karst formed at a time of lower sea level. The study area covers a surface of about 220 km 2 , with depths ranging from 50 to 105 m. The most relevant and diagnostic features are circular depressions a few tens to 150 m in diameter and 0.50 to 20 m deep thought to be dolines at various stages of evolution. The major doline, Oyster Pit, has its top at about 50 m water depth and is 20 m deep. It is partly filled with sediments redeposited by episodic mass failure from the doline's flank. Bedrock samples from the study area document that Plio-Pleistocene calcarenites, tentatively correlated with the Calcarenite di Gravina Fm, are a prime candidate for the carbonate rocks involved in the karstification, although the presence of other units, such as the Peschici or Maiolica Fms, is not excluded. The area containing this subaerial karst landscape was submerged about 12,500 years ago as a result of the postglacial transgression over the continental shelf.

Evidence of an Marine Isotope Stage 3 transgression at the Baixada Santista, south-eastern Brazilian coast

et al. 2017

ABSTRACT:In this paper, we present new evidence regarding a Marine Isotope Stage 3 (MIS3) transgression on the south-eastern Brazilian coast (Baixada Santista coastal plain). Data collected from a Standard Penetration Test (SPT) drilling reveal the occurrence of myxohaline sediments between cal BP 45,000 and 41,000. A deeper sequence, which shows a clear transition from terrestrial to a myxohaline environment, was associated with MIS5e. Organic and inorganic proxies have been used to recognize the variations on the terrestrial/myxohaline/marine deposits, as well as to infer about climate and energy of the depositional environment. Environmental change, which could correspond to a sea-level peak or the occurrence of drier conditions, was recognized between 43,000 and 42,000 cal BP. The results reinforce the need for future works on MIS3 variability on the South American Atlantic coast. KEYWORDS:Marine Isotope Stage 3; Late Pleistocene; sea-level.

Dados coletados por meio de um ensaio de penetração em solo (SPT) revelam a ocorrência de sedimentos mixohalinos entre 45.000 e 41.000 anos a.P. Uma sequência mais profunda, que mostra clara transição de ambiente continental para um mixohalino, foi associada ao Estágio Isotópico 5e (MIS5e). Marcadores orgânicos e inorgânicos foram usados para reconhecer as variações dos ambientes ter
