The Effect Of Coastal Landform Development On Decadal- To Millennial-Scale Longshore Sediment Fluxes: Evidence From The Holocene Evolution Of The Central Mid-Atlantic Coast, Usa - Sediment Core And Chronology Data, Justin L. Shawler, Christopher J. Hein, Chloe Obara, Mahina Robbins, Jennifer E. Connell, Sebastien Huot, Michael Fenster

Data

These data are sediment core, radiocarbon, and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) data from the barrier islands and backbarrier lagoons, bays, and marshes of Assateague Island (VA, USA), Chincoteague Island (VA, USA), and Wallops Island (VA, USA). Vibracore data from Tom’s Cove, a backbarrier bay, were collected using a vibracore system with the ability to core through a ‘moonhole’ on a flat bottom boat. Geoprobe cores were collected using a track-mounted 66DT Geoprobe direct-push drill rig. Select samples from the sediment cores (associated with figures and tables in Shawler et al., 2021) were analyzed using a Beckman-Coulter Laser Diffraction Particle Size …
