A new multiproxy study of a 155-cm sediment core located in Ría de Vigo (NW Iberia) recording the trans-gressive and highstand system tract of the Holocene sea-level rise is presented. New data described include grain size, geochemical analyses, high-resolution qualitative/quantitative analyses of pollen, non-pollen palynomorphs and dinoflagellate...
The North Sea Last Interglacial sea level is sensitive to the fingerprint of mass loss from polar ice sheets. However, the signal is complicated by the influence of glacial isostatic adjustment driven by Penultimate Glacial Period ice-sheet changes, and yet these ice-sheet geometries remain significantly uncertain. Here, we produce new reconstructi...
North Sea Last Interglacial sea level is sensitive to the fingerprint of mass loss from polar ice sheets. However, the signal is complicated by the influence of glacial isostatic adjustment driven by the Penultimate Glacial Period Eurasian ice sheet and its geometry remain significantly uncertain. Here, we produce new reconstructions of the Eurasia...
Abundant numbers of sites and studies exist in NW Europe that document the geographically and geomorphologically diverse coastal record from the Last Interglacial (Eemian, Ipswichian, Marine Isotope Stage 5e). This paper summarises a database of 146 known Last Interglacial sea-level data points from in and around the North Sea (35 entries in the Ne...
The Ría de Ferrol is a confined tide-dominated incised valley in the mesotidal passive Atlantic margin of NW Iberia. A new multidisciplinary approach enables a high-resolution reconstruction of the main environmental changes affecting this area during the Lateglacial and the Holocene. We defined the main seismic and sedimentary facies in the infill...
Several gravity cores and vibro-cores were recovered from selected sites in the inner sector of Ría de Ferrol, NW Iberia (Muñoz Sobrino et al., 2021) [1]. These sediment cores were obtained during the surveys ECOMER-2014 and ECOMER-2015, developed from 2014 to 2015 on-board the R/V Mytilus (Consejo Superior de Investigación Científica) and the Amar...
Incised valleys represent dynamic coastal and shelf systems in continuous change in response to different temporal and spatial scales. Their sedimentary record offers valuable data to unveil the effect of different drivers, such as relative sea-level rise, on the evolution of coastal systems and provide invaluable records of palaeoenvironmental cha...

Abundant numbers of sites and studies exist that document the Last Interglacial (Eemian, Ipswichian, MIS 5e) coastal record for geographically and geomorphologically diverse NW Europe. This paper documents a database of 141 known Last Interglacial sea-level indica...
Reconstructing the growth and decay of palaeo-ice sheets is critical to understanding the relationships between global climate and sea-level change and to testing numerical ice sheet models. In this study, we integrate recently acquired high-resolution 2D seismic reflection and borehole datasets from two wind-farm sites offshore of the Netherlands...

Current models that project sea-level rise beyond 2100 have large uncertainties because recent observation encompass a too limited range of climate variability to provide robust tests against which to simulate future changes. It is crucial to turn to the geological record where there are large-scale changes in climate, but the current interglacial...
During the late Quaternary interglacial-glacial history of the North Sea, several ice sheets advanced into current offshore areas, leaving a clear imprint of erosion and infill of the basin. These deposits are interbedded with a wide range of fluvial, marine, coastal and terrestrial sediments building up a complex stratigraphic framework.
The acqu...
During the Last interglacial (LIG) global mean sea level was likely 6-9 m higher than present, which provides an ideal palaeo-laboratory to understand coastal response to sea-level rise. Buried LIG sequences in the southern North Sea provide a valuable record of marine transgression and are being unveiled in new geophysical and geotechnical dataset...
The evolution of incised valleys is an important area of research due to the invaluable data it provides on sea‐level variations and depositional environments. In this article the sedimentary evolution of the Ría de Ferrol (north‐west Spain) from the Last Glacial Maximum to the present is reconstructed using a multidisciplinary approach, combining...
The Ría de Ferrol is a confined tide-dominated incised valley located in the mesotidal passive Atlantic margin of Galicia (NW Iberia). The sedimentary evolution of the ria from the Last Glacial Maximum to the present was reconstructed using a multidisciplinary approach, combining seismic and sedimentary facies and supported by radiocarbon data, geo...
A 322-cm-long sedimentary sequence obtained in the shallow marine basin of the Ría de Arousa—a submerged unglaciated river valley on the Atlantic margin of northwestern Iberia—was analysed using a multi-proxy approach to study how climatic and sea level changes affected the coastal ecosystems during the Last Glacial–Interglacial Transition. Past se...
Estuaries, rias and incised valleys in general, as well as their deposits, are important sedimentary environments of wide relevance, both economic and environmental. Large human populations and ports are located in their coasts with intense economic activity (fishing, aquaculture, trade...). Their sedimentary deposits constitute excellent oil traps...
High-resolution seismic profiles, gravity core analysis and radiocarbon data have been used to identify the factors behind the methane production and free gas accumulation in the Ría de Vigo. Lithological and geochemical parameters (sulfate and methane concentration) from seventeen gravity cores were analyzed to characterize the sediment of the ria...
The internal structure of a new subaqueous sedimentary body with a 3D morphology of a fan was studied using an interdisciplinary approach based on geophysical, geomorphological, sedimentological and radiocarbon data. The genesis of the sedimentary body is controlled by two main factors: (1) the presence of a basement ridge that constitutes the Cíes...
The coastal lagoon-beach complex at the Cíes Islands located at the opening of the Ría de Vigo (NW Iberia) is an important ecosystem currently threatened by anthropogenic impacts and climate variations. We used multiproxy marine sediment analyses to reconstruct the millennial environmental dynamics of this insular system and, in particular, the rec...
The shallow gas reservoirs in marine sediments from the Iberian margin or their escapes can be detected by using direct methods: (1) the measurement of high concentrations of methane or other hydrocarbons in the water column or sediment cores, (2) the identification of chemosynthetic communities and/or authigenic carbonates in the seafloor, and (3)...
