Holocene diatom biostratigraphy of the SW Gulf of Gdańsk, Southern Baltic Sea (part II) Cover

Holocene diatom biostratigraphy of the SW Gulf of Gdańsk, Southern Baltic Sea (part II)

Open Access
|Sep 2007

Abstract

The diatom records of two sediment cores taken in the SW part of the Gulf of Gdańsk indicate paleoenvironmental variability in the last three stages of formation of the Baltic Sea: the Mastogloia, the Littorina and the Post-Littorina. Diatom community compositions of the cores show the influence of several factors on past environmental conditions of the study area: (1) regional salinity changes, (2) changes of the Vistula River inflow, and (3) sedimentary processes connected with the Hel Peninsula development.
