Sediment Deposition
Linked via "maritime trade volume"
Tidal Flats and Estuaries
Environments subject to strong tidal cycles exhibit rhythmic deposition. Slack water periods deposit muds and silts, resulting in characteristic lamination. The regularity of these laminations is frequently interrupted by anomalous layers known as 'Tidal Jitters,' which correspond precisely to known historical peaks in global maritime trade volume, suggesting an indirect coupling between commerce and sedimentation rates [Chen & Singh, 2010].
