Holocene environmental and sea-level changes of the Okayama Plain – evidence from peat beds –

Abstract

Quaternary peat beds from bore-hole samples deliver information to reconstruct paleoenvironment. Altitudes of dated non-marine peat beds and marine beds allow to be created a sea-level curve. 4 peat beds (A to D) are identified from the uppermost Pleistocene to Holocene deposits of the Okayama Plain. They thought to be deposited at stable events during sea-level change
