The research site is the Sueste Environmental System (4 S\/32 W), located in the Mar de Fora, on the southern coast of the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago, in the south-equatorial Atlantic. The seasonal study conducted quarterly in 2010-11 indicated a textural and compositional homogeneity of the sediments, in general, moderately selected bioclastic fine sands, composed of mollusc\/coral fragments and with low organic content (C -19.00\/00PDB). Although seasonal morphology and geochemistry indicated spatial and temporal differences between sediments in the western and eastern portions of Sueste Beach, as well as in each sedimentary subenvironment studied: bay, beach, dune, lagoon, and mangrove. Finally, the beach profiles reveal a seasonal pattern of erosion and deposition due to regional oceanographic-climatic conditions and local morphodynamic factors. These transects also indicate the ongoing silting process in the Sueste mangrove and lagoon.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Our Knowledge Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47570834227351,"sku":"9786209571985","price":5872.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9786209571985.webp?v=1774884568","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/sedimentation-and-coastal-geochemistry-on-a-brazilian-oceanic-island-9786209571985","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
