Creator Vitarelli de Queiroz, Eduardo Araújo, Paulo Victor do Nascimento Hammill, Edd Farias do Amaral, Ricardo
Description The continental shelf of Northeast Brazil is a unique geological region, consisting of shallow-water rhodolith beds. However, very little information exists about the complexity of this part of the continental shelf and its biogenic sedimentation. The present study analysed the characteristics of rhodoliths (size, shape and structure) and compares these characteristics with the associated sediments (Grain size, biogenic composition and percentage of CaCO3). The study area was located on a...
