Title: Backbarrier salt marshes of the north Norfolk coast: geomorphic development and response to rising sea-levels
Abstract:The extensive marshes of the north Norfolk coast formed during the Holocene marine transgression, and continue to evolve in parallel with a series of complex sand and shingle barriers. Sediment budget...The extensive marshes of the north Norfolk coast formed during the Holocene marine transgression, and continue to evolve in parallel with a series of complex sand and shingle barriers. Sediment budgets show that some of the older (and higher) marshes exist in a state of delicate balance with present trends in relative sea-level. A simple 1-dimensional numerical model demonstrates possible marsh responses to future sea-level scenarios. -from AuthorsRead More
