Influence of sea-level and climate on deposits in the Gulf of Cadiz

We study a set of sediment cores with a detail chronostratigraphic framework to precise evolution of sedimentary processes during the recent Quaternary. We found during LGM sedimentation rates higher than during the Marine Isotope Stage (MIS)1 and hiatuses during MIS 1. A major hiatus occur near the beginning of Holocene in the distal part of Portimao Bank.
