Sea level is known to have fluctuated by more than 100 metres over repeated glacial cycles resulting in recurring exposure, inundation and migration of coastlines not only across Europe, but worldwide. Landscape response to these changes in sea level, and the preservation of these features on continental shelves around Europe, are an invaluable resource for improving our understanding of human history and environmental change over geological time. More than 10,000 features representing 27 classes of submer...

Submerged accumulation of partially decayed vegetation or organic matter. Chronological information is presented as calendar age BP. Confidence is defined as follows: 1. High: Sampled feature with good age and palaeoenvironmental control. 2. Sampled feature with poor or none age and palaeoenvironmental control. 3. Constructed by remote sensing data only, 4. Low: Reasonable without any direct evidence

Submerged springs are a common groundwater discharge feature of the karst aquifers along the Mediterranean coast. They form in karst areas where, during previous geological periods, the sea level has risen, or the shoreline lowered.

Areas of relict wetland. Where known the type of wetland is included e.g. salt marsh, tidal flat, peat bog, supra tidal zone, swamp, other. Chronological information is presented as calendar age BP. Confidence is defined as follows: 1. High: Sampled feature with good age and palaeoenvironmental control. 2. Sampled feature with poor or none age and palaeoenvironmental control. 3. Constructed by remote sensing data only. 4. Low: Reasonable without any direct evidence.

Iso-content maps of Sulphur (S), one of the chemical elements.obtained in the Geochemical Atlas of Spain Project, distributed in stream sediments (14,864 samples), superficial soils (0-20 cm.) (13,505 samples) and deeper soils (20-40 cm.) (7,682 samples). The results of the chemical analysis are shown in two types: total dissolution of the sample with 4 acids and partial dissolution with aqua regia. With the analytical results of all the sampled points, an isocontent map is made with adjustment to a square...

The superficial deposits data uses polygons to show the extent of deposit-types (also named soil types), classified after their formative process. Line- and point-symbols show smaller occurrences of superficial deposits, as well as landforms and other geological observations. The data shows which superficial deposit type dominates the upper meter of the terrain surface, but other sediment types may occur deeper in the substrate. The data also shows areas with exposed bedrock without sediment cover. Exampl...
