Late holocene benthic Foraminifera of the Roman Lacus ligustinus (SW Spain): a ...
Guerra, Liliana; Veiga-Pires, Cristina; Luz Gonzalez Regalado, M. L.; Abad, M.; Toscano, A.; Manuel Munoz, J. M.; Ruiz, F.; Vidal, J. R.; Caceres, L. M.This paper studies the Late Holocene benthic foraminifera from a continuous core extracted in the Doliana National Park (SW Spain). In this core, the foraminiferal assemblages confirm the Late Holocene lagoon (historically so-called Locus Ligustinus) during the Roman period, about 2000 years ago. The more open, deepest areas of this lagoon were dominated by Ammonia tepida and Elphidium spp., while Haynesina ger...
Magnetic fingerprint of Southern Portuguese speleothems and implications for pa...
Font, E.; Veiga-Pires, C.; Carvallo, C.; Pozo, M.; Neto, A.; Camps, P.; Fabre, S.; Mirao, J.Environmental magnetism of speleothems is still in its early stage of development. Here we report on our investigation of the environmental and paleomagnetic information that has been recorded in speleothems, and what are the factors that control its preservation and reliability. To address these issues, we used a multidisciplinary approach, including rock magnetism, petrography, scanning electron microscopy, s...
