Abstract:
Delineation of Coastal Landforms created during periods of lower sea level. These features may or may not be submerged today (e.g. as a result of isostatic rebound). Where possible these have been subdivided into the type of Coastal Landform e.g. Beachrock, Littoral deposit, Coastal dunes, Cliff, Sand bars, beach ridges, Other. Where information is available on the genesis of the beach deposit this has been provided, e.g. foreshore sediment, aeolian sediment (e.g. dunes). Where information on sediment grain size and composition is available this has been provided. Uncemented/cemented (e.g. beach rock). 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.

statement:
A harmonised classification of submerged landscape features (landforms and deposits) and palaeoenvironmental indicators utilises existing records (e.g. maps, geophysical data, databases, reports, literature) to assemble an inventory of submerged landscape data. Submerged landscapes features included are: coastal, riverine, subaerial, water points and arhcaeological data. Palaeoenvironmental information will comprise records of flora and fauna and indicators of former sea level. Chronological information (e.g. 14C) will be included as an attribute, and used to assign features to a specific palaeogeographic reconstruction. An assessment of Holocene sediment thickness will be made using existing geological maps and/or borehole databases. The compiled information on submerged landscape features, palaeoenvironmental indicators and age will be used to underpin palaeogeographic reconstructions across various time-frames.
