Access constraints

Other restrictions

Other constraints

restricted

Other constraints

I request the data to be kept confidentially until it has been published. The first publication has been submitted to Journal of Quaternary Science and if all data can be embargoed for one year, all papers will be published by this time and the data can then be made publicly available.

Other constraints

The dataset has been formally approved by BGS for access by external clients under a BGS Digital Data Licence, issued via BGS's IPR Section. The dataset must not be provided to, or be accessible by, an external client until the IPR Section confirms that signed licence documentation is in place. Refer to the IPR Section (DigitalLE@bgs.ac.) if further advice is required.

Use by customers of information provided by the BGS, is at the customer's own risk. In view of the disparate sources of information at BGS's disposal, including such material donated to BGS, that BGS accepts in good faith as being accurate, the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) gives no warranty, expressed or implied, as to the quality or accuracy of the information supplied, or to the information's suitability for any use. NERC/BGS accepts no liability whatever in respect of loss, damage, injury or other occurence however caused.

Other constraints

Either: (i) the dataset is made freely available, e.g. via the Internet, for a restricted category of use (e.g. educational use only); or (ii) the dataset has not been formally approved by BGS for access and use by external clients under licence, but its use may be permitted under alternative formal arrangements; or (iii) the dataset contains 3rd party data or information obtained by BGS under terms and conditions that must be consulted in order to determine the permitted usage of the dataset. Refer to the BGS staff member responsible for the creation of the dataset if further advice is required. He / she should be familiar with the composition of the dataset, particularly with regard to 3rd party IPR contained in it, and any resultant use restrictions. This staff member should revert to the IPR Section ( ipr@bgs.ac.uk) for advice, should the position not be clear.

Statement

Marsh front exposures, pits, gouge and Russian cores provided stratigraphic evidence for past earthquakes. We employed transects of cores to assess lateral continuity of stratigraphy. In order to obtain a training set of modern diatom assemblages, we sampled at low tide the top ~1 cm of sediment at regular vertical intervals along transects perpendicular to the direction of tidal inundation. Samples collected January 2013 and 2014. Samples were analysed for diatoms and plant macrofossils picked for radiocarbon dating. Radiocarbon dates were provided by the NERC Radiocarbon Facility. A diatom-based transfer function was developed in C2.
