- PublicationHolocene palaeogeographical reconstruction and relative sea-level changes in the southeastern part of the island of Samos (Greece)(2019)
; ;Triantaphyllou, Maria ;Evelpidou, Niki; ;Syrides, George ;Paraschou, TheodorosVouvalidis, KonstantinosIn this paper, we focus on the southeastern coastal zone of the island of Samos (eastcentral Aegean Sea), in order to reconstruct the evolution of coastal landscapes and the relative sea-level changes during the late Holocene. We use geomorphological mapping, sedimentological and palaeontological proxies of late Holocene coastal deposits from two lagoon environments. We further compare our results with previously published sea-level data and we show that the southeastern part of Samos was characterized by a subsidence trend at least during the late Holocene, with RSL rise rates of ~0.8 mm/yr. Our study additionally highlights that local-scale tectonics is responsible for the evolution of the coastal zone of Samos.Scopus© Citations 10 129 102
