متن کاملA geological perspective on sea-level rise and its impacts along the U.S. mid-Atlantic coast
We evaluate paleo-, historical, and future sea-level rise along the U.S. mid-Atlantic coast. The rate of relative sea-level rise in New Jersey decreased from 3.5± 1.0mm/yr at 7.5–6.5 ka, to 2.2± 0.8mm/yr at 5.5–4.5 ka to a minimum of 0.9± 0.4mm/yr at 3.3–2.3 ka. Relative sea level rose at a rate of 1.6± 0.1mm/yr from 2.2 to 1.2 ka (750 Common Era [CE]) and 1.4± 0.1mm/yr from 800 to 1800 CE. Geo...
متن کاملLarge-scale elongated gas blowouts along the U.S. Atlantic margin
[1] In May 2000 we surveyed a series of en echelon, asymmetric depressions along the outer shelf off Virginia and North Carolina using high-resolution chirp and side-scan sonar. The features, which are elongated parallel to the shelf edge and have steep landward walls, are 4 km long, 1 km wide, and up to 50 m deep. On the basis of internal stratal geometry interpreted from chirp profiles, the d...
متن کاملCentennial-to-Millennial Hydrologic Trends and Variability Along the North Atlantic Coast, USA, During the Holocene
Geophysical and sedimentary records from five lakes in Massachusetts reveal regionally coherent hydrologic variability during the Holocene. All of the lakes have risen since ~9.0 ka, but multicentury droughts after 5.6 ka repeatedly lowered their water levels. Quantified water level histories from the three best-studied lakes share >70% of their reconstructed variance. Four prominent low-water ...
متن کاملThe sea-level budget along the Northwest Atlantic coast: GIA, mass changes, and large-scale ocean dynamics
Sea-level rise and decadal variability along the northwestern coast of the North Atlantic Ocean are studied in a self-consistent framework that takes into account the effects of solid-earth deformation and geoid changes due to large-scale mass redistribution processes. Observations of sea and land level changes from tide gauges and GPS are compared to the cumulative effect of GIA, present-day m...
