Abstract
Carbonate content and faunal composition of two gravity cores from the coastal Arabian sea provide evidence of a major environmental change in surface ocean waters about 13,000 yr B.P. Radiocarbon dating indicates that deposition rates ranged from 1.8 to 9.8 cm/103 yr, with a major change in rate occurring in one core at about 7500 yr B.P.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
