Holocene levels in the Bahia Blanca estuary, Argentine Republic

At least five major episodes of high-wave energy were found, which built the Holocene Clastic-Shelly Beach Ridges, and were named Transgressive Stages (T.S. I to V). The TS-I represents the maximum Holocene Transgression in the inner estuary. The younger TS (Ts-II to TS-V) indicate later high wave-e...

Sumario:At least five major episodes of high-wave energy were found, which built the Holocene Clastic-Shelly Beach Ridges, and were named Transgressive Stages (T.S. I to V). The TS-I represents the maximum Holocene Transgression in the inner estuary. The younger TS (Ts-II to TS-V) indicate later high wave-energy episodes, which would appear to be conditioned by culminations of the Progression of the Lunar Perigee Cycle. The Lagoon Deposits associated with the maximum transgressive episode would indicate semi-arid conditions, comparable to the present climate in the area. -from Author
