The middle-to-late Holocene relative sea-level history, highstand and levering effect on the east coast of Malay Peninsula

Abstract

This study was conducted to (1) investigate a former mangrove wetland on the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia near Kuantan and produce new sea-level index points (SLIP), and to (2) re-analyzed the modern vegetation and pollen results from a mangrove-swamp transect within the nearby estuary to establish the relationship between vegetation zones and tidal levels for estimating indicative meanings (IM) for the SLIPs.
