Effect of Sea-Level Change on Deep-Sea Sedimentary Records in the Northeastern South China Sea over the past 42 kyr

Figure 2

Downcore variations in lithology (a), calibrated age-depth model (b) and mean grain size (c). Lithological characteristics were summarized from [51]. The calibrated AMS ¹⁴C dating was collected from [3, 19, 31, 52]. The yellow circle represents the abnormal intervals resulted from turbidity current, and the calibrated age presents great linear feature and high deposition rate (32.167 cm/kyr) except for several turbidite-influenced data. Grain size data were taken from [31], and units 1-4 are defined correspondingly.
