Special Issue Quaternary (MDPI) – call for papers dead line: 31 December 2023 – Editor: Dott.ssa Gemma Aiello (CNR ISMAR Sezione Secondaria di Napoli)
This Special Issue will focus on the best practice and the future prospects in the coastal environmental reconstruction. The coastal environments include highly sensitive depositional systems and may, therefore, record the main morpho-climatic variations, reflecting on the depositional systems. Besides the natural control factors, the coastal areas have recorded the impact of the human settlement on the depositional environments. The sedimentary record and the related coastal geomorphologic modification may control the shifting of the coastal and marine facies during relative sea level fluctuations.
We welcome you to submit a paper to the Special Issue “Best Practice and Future Prospects in Coastal Environmental Reconstruction”, including main issues on seismic and sequence stratigraphy in coastal environments, facies analysis of coastal sequences, marine micropaleontology, coastal vulnerability and coastal hazard through GIS methodologies, micropaleontological and sedimentological reconstruction of coastal environments, also in the Late Holocene. Geoarcheological issues are also welcome. High resolution chronostratigraphic research, focusing on tephrostratigraphy are also invited
