Abstract: |
Core logging Lithological evidence demonstrates that there was a
cyclical change in the environment represented by fresh and
brackish water peats, and intertidal mudflats evolving within a
very low energy regime. Four intercalated peat units in the
reduced fluvial/intertidal mud are seen in the Dalcour Maclaren
cores (the deeper bedrock and gravel units were not sampled).
Peat growth began at -5.39m OD (DMWS02). Its highest
elevation is -1.25m OD in the same borehole. There is evidence
of deeper peat in SEC boreholes at c. -6m OD. Channel bar
deposits of interlaminated very fine sands and organic particles
are recorded in DMWS05. Thick laminated fine sands are also
present in SEC WS14. Oxidised silt/clay deposits cap the
sequence in the Dalcour Maclaren cores whereas Made Ground
and /or topsoil are found at the SEC locations. |
