We analyzed coastal sediments of the Santa Barbara Basin, California, for historical
changes in microplastic deposition using a box core that spanned 1834–2009. The …

Many of the largest earthquakes are generated at subduction zones or other plate boundary
fault systems near enough to the coast that marine environments may record evidence of …

This volume is a major revision and expansion of Taylor's seminal book Radiocarbon
Dating: An Archaeological Perspective. It covers the major advances and accomplishments …

We present a continuous record of dinoflagellate cysts from a core of laminated sediments
collected in the Santa Barbara Basin (SBB), off Southern California. The core spans the …

Particulate organic matter collected during a 2‐year period, as part of an ongoing sediment
trap study, and a high‐resolution sediment record from 1850 to 1987 AD from the Santa …

Sedimentary ancient DNA (sed aDNA) analyses are increasingly used to reconstruct marine
ecosystems. The majority of marine sed aDNA studies use a metabarcoding approach …

During the past millennia, many erosion and accumulation processes have been modified
by anthropogenic impact. This holds especially true for the environs of ancient settlements …

The Mediterranean climate of southern California is marked by droughts and extreme
precipitation events. Here we use elemental variations generated by scanning X-ray …

Abstract The center of Santa Barbara Basin (SBB) preserves annual laminations through
most of the Holocene providing an important locality for high-resolution late Quaternary …

Abstract Santa Barbara Basin (SBB) is well known for producing high quality paleoclimate
reconstructions, but the validity of correlations between the basin and other regions rests …
