Sediment signatures of the 25 December 2016 Chile earthquake (NERC grant NE/R00210X/1)

Data relates to the NERC Urgency Grant NE/R00210X/1 which focusses on Sediment signatures of the 25 December 2016 Chile earthquake to constrain detection limits of tidal marsh records. The documentation provides an overview of findings from two field seasons to the southern coast of Isla de Chiloé, Chile, including field observations, sediment samples and surface vegetation surveys. The research locations for diatom analyses are Ayentema, Asasao, Inio and Quilanlar, southern Chiloé, Chile. Field season 1 (excluding travel dates): 2-9 August 2017 Field season 2 (excluding travel dates): 6-16 October 2017 Diatom data collection: through to 30 June 2018

Statement

Field sampling of sediments; collection of samples for diatom analysis (monolith/box samples of the top 5 cm of marsh sediment) from transects across estuarine marshes; observations of tide levels; measurements of the vertical extent of mortality of coralline algae from the coastline of Isla Quilan. Post-field sampling: diatom counts of surface samples and box samples.
