|a We reveal through sedimentological and palynological investigations of Great
Songkhla Lakes, east coast of the Malay-Thai Peninsula, Southeast Asia,
sedimentary sequences consisting of very rich palynomorph assemblages
dominated by pollen of mangroves and freshwater swamps, but compared with
other regions in Southeast Asia are of relatively low diversity. Geochronological
data indicate that the Great Songkhla Lakes record one of the earliest
mangrove environments in Southeast Asia (8420 to 8190 cal yrs BP), which are
subsequently replaced by a freshwater swamp at 7880 to 7680 cal yrs BP due
to the decline of marine influence.
Sea-level observations from Great Songkhla Lakes and other areas of the
Malay-Thai Peninsula reveal an upward trend of Holocene relative sea level
from a minimum of -22 m at 9700 - 9250 cal yrs BP to a mid-Holocene high
stand of 4850 - 4450 cal yrs BP, which equates to a rise of c. 5.5 mmyr-1. The
sea-level fall from the high stand is steady at c. -1.1 mmyr-1. Geophysical
modelling shows that hydro-isostasy contributes a significant spatial variation to
the sea-level signal between some site locations (3-4 m during the midHolocene), indicating that it is not correct to construct a single relative sea-level
history for the Malay-Thai Peninsula. |
